+ default IOMMU_DEFAULT_STRICT
+ help
+ This option allows an IOMMU DMA IOTLB invalidation mode to be
+ chosen at build time, to override the default mode of each ARCH,
+ removing the need to pass in kernel parameters through command line.
+ It is still possible to provide common boot params to override this
+ config.

+ If unsure, keep the default.

+ bool "strict"
+ help
+ For every IOMMU DMA unmap operation, the flush operation of IOTLB and
+ the free operation of IOVA are guaranteed to be done in the unmap
+ function.
+
+config IOMMU_DEFAULT_LAZY
+ bool "lazy"
+ help
+ Support lazy mode, where for every IOMMU DMA unmap operation, the
+ flush operation of IOTLB and the free operation of IOVA are deferred.
+ They are only guaranteed to be done before the related IOVA will be
+ reused.
+
+ The isolation provided in this mode is not as secure as STRICT mode,
+ such that a vulnerable time window may be created between the DMA
+ unmap and the mappings cached in the IOMMU IOTLB or device TLB
+ finally being invalidated, where the device could still access the
+ memory which has already been unmapped by the device driver.
+ However this mode may provide better performance in high throughput
+ scenarios, and is still considerably more secure than passthrough
+ mode or no IOMMU.
