Suravee Suthikulpanit 96522cf9c7 iommu/amd: Introduce Disable IRTE Caching Support 
[ Upstream commit 66419036f6 ]

An Interrupt Remapping Table (IRT) stores interrupt remapping configuration
for each device. In a normal operation, the AMD IOMMU caches the table
to optimize subsequent data accesses. This requires the IOMMU driver to
invalidate IRT whenever it updates the table. The invalidation process
includes issuing an INVALIDATE_INTERRUPT_TABLE command following by
a COMPLETION_WAIT command.

However, there are cases in which the IRT is updated at a high rate.
For example, for IOMMU AVIC, the IRTE[IsRun] bit is updated on every
vcpu scheduling (i.e. amd_iommu_update_ga()). On system with large
amount of vcpus and VFIO PCI pass-through devices, the invalidation
process could potentially become a performance bottleneck.

Introducing a new kernel boot option:

    amd_iommu=irtcachedis

which disables IRTE caching by setting the IRTCachedis bit in each IOMMU
Control register, and bypass the IRT invalidation process.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
