| |
The Caching Mode (CM) of the Intel IOMMU indicates if the hardware implementation caches not-present or erroneous translation-structure entries except the first-stage translation. The caching mode is irrelevant to the device TLB , therefore there is no need to check it before a device TLB invalidation operation.
iommu_flush_iotlb_psi() is called in map and unmap paths. The caching mode check before device TLB invalidation will cause device TLB invalidation always issued if IOMMU is not running in caching mode. This is wrong and causes unnecessary performance overhead.
The removal of caching mode check in intel_flush_iotlb_all() doesn't impact anything no matter the IOMMU is working in caching mode or not. Commit <29b32839725f> ("iommu/vt-d: Do not use flush-queue when caching-mode is on") has already disabled flush-queue for caching mode, hence caching mode will never call intel_flush_iotlb_all().
