Subject[PATCH 0/4] iommu/amd, vfio: Reduce IOTLB Flushm Rate
Date
Hi,

these patches implement the new IOTLB flush interface in the
AMD IOMMU driver. But for it to take effect, changes in VFIO
are also necessary, because VFIO unpins the pages after
every successful iommu_unmap() call. This requires an IOTLB
flush, so that we don't save flushes.

So I implemented vfio-gather code to collect up to 32 ranges
before they are unpinned together. This significantly
reduces the number of necessary IOTLB flushes in my tests.

Please review.

Thanks,

Joerg
