This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled vfio/spapr: fail tce_iommu_attach_group() when iommu_data is null to the 4.4-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: vfio-spapr-fail-tce_iommu_attach_group-when-iommu_data-is-null.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Jul 3 13:22:16 CEST 2017 From: Greg Kurz <groug@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 17:50:26 +0100 Subject: vfio/spapr: fail tce_iommu_attach_group() when iommu_data is null From: Greg Kurz <groug@xxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit bd00fdf198e2da475a2f4265a83686ab42d998a8 ] The recently added mediated VFIO driver doesn't know about powerpc iommu. It thus doesn't register a struct iommu_table_group in the iommu group upon device creation. The iommu_data pointer hence remains null. This causes a kernel oops when userspace tries to set the iommu type of a container associated with a mediated device to VFIO_SPAPR_TCE_v2_IOMMU.
