This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iommu/amd: Only unmap large pages from the first pte to the 3.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: iommu-amd-only-unmap-large-pages-from-the-first-pte.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 60d0ca3cfd199b6612bbbbf4999a3470dad38bb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 14:33:19 -0600 Subject: iommu/amd: Only unmap large pages from the first pte From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 60d0ca3cfd199b6612bbbbf4999a3470dad38bb1 upstream. If we use a large mapping, the expectation is that only unmaps from the first pte in the superpage are supported. Unmaps from offsets into the superpage should fail (ie. return zero sized unmap). In the current code, unmapping from an offset clears the size of the full mapping starting from an offset. For instance, if we map a 16k physically contiguous range at IOVA 0x0 with a large page, then attempt to unmap 4k at offset 12k, 4 ptes are cleared (12k - 28k) and the unmap returns 16k unmapped. This potentially incorrectly clears valid mappings and confuses drivers like VFIO that use the unmap size to release pinned pages. Fix by refusing to unmap from offsets into the page.
