Hello Alexey,
I recently joined IOMMU team. There was a bug reported by test team
where Mellanox driver was timing out during configuration. I proposed a
fix for the same, which is below in the email.
You suggested a fix for Srikar's reported problem. Basically, both these
fixes will resolve Srikar and Mellanox driver issues. The problem is
with 2MB DDW.
Since you have extensive knowledge of IOMMU design and code, in your
opinion, which patch should we adopt?
Thanks a lot
Gaurav
