Currently, Cloud Hypervisor does not set a VIRTIO_IOMMU_F_INPUT_RANGE
feature bit for the VirtIO IOMMU device, which, according to spec[1],
means that the guest may use the whole 64-bit address space is for
IOMMU purposes:
>If the feature is not offered, virtual mappings span over the whole
>64-bit address space (start = 0, end = 0xffffffff ffffffff)
As far as I am aware, there are currently no host platforms on
the market capable of addressing the whole 64-bit address space.
For example, I am currently working with a host platform that reports
39-bit address space for IOMMU purposes:
>DMAR: Host address width 39
When running a VFIO pass-through guest on such a platform, NVIDIA
driver in guest gets DMA mapping failures when working with large data,
and this results in Cloud Hypervisor exiting with the following error:
>cloud-hypervisor: 1501.220535s: <__iommu>
>ERROR:virtio-devices/src/thread_helper.rs:53 -- Error running worker:
>HandleEvent(Failed to process request queue : ExternalMapping(Custom
>{ kind: Other, error: "failed to map memory for VFIO container, iova
>0x7fff00000000, gpa 0x24ce25000, size 0x1000: IommuDmaMap(Error(22))"
>}))
Passing "--platform iommu_address_width=39" to Cloud Hypervisor built
with this change fixes this.
