[PATCH 12/12] drm/tegra: Optionally attach clients to the IOMMU

Mon Oct 28 12:37:18 UTC 2019


From: Thierry Reding <treding at nvidia.com>

If a client is already attached to an IOMMU domain that is not the
shared domain, don't try to attach it again. This allows using the
IOMMU-backed DMA API.

Since the IOMMU-backed DMA API is now supported and there's no way
to detach from it on 64-bit ARM, don't bother to detach from it on
32-bit ARM either.
