Merge tag 'iommu-fixes-v5.7-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull iommu fixes from Joerg Roedel: - Race condition fixes for the AMD IOMMU driver. These are five patches fixing two race conditions around increase_address_space(). The first race condition was around the non-atomic update of the domain page-table root pointer and the variable containing the page-table depth (called mode). This is fixed now be merging page-table root and mode into one 64-bit field which is read/written atomically. The second race condition was around updating the page-table root pointer and making it public before the hardware caches were flushed. This could cause addresses to be mapped and returned to drivers which are not reachable by IOMMU hardware yet, causing IO page-faults. This is fixed too by adding the necessary flushes before a new page-table root is published. Related to the race condition fixes these patches also add a missing domain_flush_complete() barrier to update_domain() and a fix to bail out of the loop which tries to increase the address space when the call to increase_address_space() fails. Qian was able to trigger the race conditions under high load and memory pressure within a few days of testing. He confirmed that he has seen no issues anymore with the fixes included here. - Fix for a list-handling bug in the VirtIO IOMMU driver. * tag 'iommu-fixes-v5.7-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu: iommu/virtio: Reverse arguments to list_add iommu/amd: Do not flush Device Table in iommu_map_page() iommu/amd: Update Device Table in increase_address_space() iommu/amd: Call domain_flush_complete() in update_domain() iommu/amd: Do not loop forever when trying to increase address space iommu/amd: Fix race in increase_address_space()/fetch_pte()
