Currently for iommu_unmap() of large scatter-gather list with page size elements, the majority of time is spent in flushing of partial walks in __arm_lpae_unmap() which is a VA based TLB invalidation (TLBIVA for arm-smmu).
For example: to unmap a 32MB scatter-gather list with page size elements (8192 entries), there are 16->2MB buffer unmaps based on the pgsize (2MB for 4K granule) and each of 2MB will further result in 512 TLBIVAs (2MB/4K) resulting in a total of 8192 TLBIVAs (512*16) for 16->2MB causing a huge overhead. So instead use io_pgtable_tlb_flush_all() to invalidate the entire context if size (pgsize) is greater than the granule size (4K, 16K, 64K). For this example of 32MB scatter-gather list unmap, this results in just 16 ASID based TLB invalidations or tlb_flush_all() callback (TLBIASID in case of arm-smmu) as opposed to 8192 TLBIVAs thereby increasing the performance of unmaps drastically. Condition (size > granule size) is chosen for io_pgtable_tlb_flush_all() because for any granule with supported pgsizes, we will have at least 512 TLB invalidations for which tlb_flush_all() is already recommended. For example, take 4K granule with 2MB pgsize, this will result in 512 TLBIVA in partial walk flush. Test on QTI SM8150 SoC for 10 iterations of iommu_{map_sg}/unmap: (average over 10 iterations) Before this optimization: size iommu_map_sg iommu_unmap 4K 2.067 us 1.854 us 64K 9.598 us 8.802 us 1M 148.890 us 130.718 us 2M 305.864 us 67.291 us 12M 1793.604 us 390.838 us 16M 2386.848 us 518.187 us 24M 3563.296 us 775.989 us 32M 4747.171 us 1033.364 us After this optimization: size iommu_map_sg iommu_unmap 4K 1.723 us 1.765 us 64K 9.880 us 8.869 us 1M 155.364 us 135.223 us 2M 303.906 us 5.385 us 12M 1786.557 us 21.250 us 16M 2391.890 us 27.437 us 24M 3570.895 us 39.937 us 32M 4755.234 us 51.797 us This is further reduced once the map/unmap_pages() support gets in which will result in just 1 tlb_flush_all() as opposed to 16 tlb_flush_all().
