this also includes logic to trim higher page levels:
/* * Knock out extra levels of page tables if necessary */ while (iommu->agaw < dmar_domain->agaw) { struct dma_pte *pte;
pte = dmar_domain->pgd; if (dma_pte_present(pte)) { dmar_domain->pgd = phys_to_virt(dma_pte_addr(pte)); free_pgtable_page(pte); } dmar_domain->agaw--;
}
What's the background of doing such truncation instead of simply failing the request?
This code existed a long time ago. I'm not sure if it's still reasonable so far.
In any means it's probably fine before the domain includes any mapping but really unreasonable to apply it to an existing s2 when it's used as a parent.
But for the new nested translation, it is obviously unreasonable.
Let me revisit it.
