[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] bus/pci: forbid VA as IOVA mode if IOMMU address width too small

Intel VT-d supports different address widths for the IOVAs, from
39 bits to 56 bits.

While recent processors support at least 48 bits, VT-d emulation
currently only supports 39 bits. It makes DMA mapping to fail in this
case when using VA as IOVA mode, as user-space virtual addresses uses
up to 47 bits (see kernel's Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt).

This patch parses VT-d CAP register value available in sysfs, and
forbid VA as IOVA mode if the GAW is 39 bits or unknown.

Fixes: f37dfab21c98 ("drivers/net: enable IOVA mode for Intel PMDs")

Hi,

I'm not super happy with the patch as it does platform specific things in
generic code, but there are no placeholder for IOMMU/VT-d at the moment.

As this patch is to be backported to v17.11 LTS, it cannot be a big rework.

If you have some suggestion to improve it, please let me know.

The fix is quite urgent, as guest device assignment with vIOMMU is broken in
mainline & v17.11 LTS.

Advantage of this fix over forbidding VA as IOVA when running in emulation is
that VT-d emulation will soon support 48 bits, so this is future proof. Also,
VT-d spec supports 39 bits, so we could have physical CPUs supporting it, even
if I don't know any.

Thanks,
Maxime
