Bug description:
SRU justification:
[Impact]
OS can use IOMMU to defend against DMA attacks from a PCI device like
thunderbolt one.
Intel adds DMA_CTRL_PLATFORM_OPT_IN_FLAG flag in DMAR ACPI table.
Use this flag to enable IOMMU and use _DSD to identify untrusted PCI devices.
[Fix]
Enable IOMMU when BIOS supports DMA opt in flag and ExternalFacingPort in
_DSD.
Disable ATS on the untrusted PCI device.
[Test]
Tested on 2 Intel platforms that supports DMA opt in flag with a thunderbolt
dock station.
iommu enabled as expected with this fix.
[Regression Potential]
Upstream fix, Verified on supported platforms, no affection on not supported
platforms.
Backported changes are fairly minimal.
These patches are included in 5.0 kernel, disco is good.
