IOMMU is only used there to remap memory that doesn't fit a device's DMA mask. There is a debugging mode to force iommu always, but it is not used unless you configure it specially. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
