From: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Commit 82460d972 ("drm/i915: Rework ppgtt init to no require an aliasing ppgtt") introduced a regression on Broadwell, triggering the following IOMMU fault at startup: vgaarb: device changed decodes: PCI:0000:00:02.0,olddecodes=io+mem,decodes=io+mem:owns=io+mem dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2 dmar: DMAR:[DMA Write] Request device [00:02.0] fault addr 880000 DMAR:[fault reason 23] Unknown fbcon: inteldrmfb (fb0) is primary device Further commentary from Daniel: I sugggested this change to David after staring at the offending patch for a while. I have no idea and theory whatsoever why this would upset the gpu less than the other way round. But it seems to work. David promised to chase hw people a bit more to get a more meaningful answer. Wrt the comment that this deletes: I've done some digging and afaict loading context before ppgtt enable was once required before our recent restructuring of the context/ppgtt init code: Before that context sw setup (i.e. allocating the default context) and hw setup was smashed together. Also the setup of the default context was the bit that actually allocated the aliasing ppgtt structures. Which is the reason for the context before ppgtt depency. Or was, since with all the untangling there's no no real depency any more (functional, who knows what the hw is doing), so the comment is just stale.
