No. The access is only used by the ops->hw_queue_init_phys case.
The ops->hw_queue_init case will use the cmd->nesting_parent_iova
directly without calling iommufd_hw_queue_alloc_phys().
This FIXME means that, when adding ops->hw_queue_init, add this:
- struct iommufd_access *access;
+ struct iommufd_access *access = NULL;
...
- access = iommufd_hw_queue_alloc_phys(cmd, viommu, &base_pa);
+ if (ops->hw_queue_init_phys) {
+ access = iommufd_hw_queue_alloc_phys(cmd, viommu, &base_pa);
Also, the other FIXME guideline states that these two ops should be
mutually exclusive. So, add this too:
+ if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ops->hw_queue_init &&
+ ops->hw_queue_init_phys)) {
+ rc = -EOPNOTSUPP;
Thanks
