Hi, I assigned a PCIe device to my QEMU VM and learnt that in this case, IOMMU maintains GPA->HPA translation. What I want to achieve is to pass commands with host physical addresses to the device from inside the VM and see if the DMA will successfully do that for me.
(1). How does VFIO setup the GPA->HPA mapping for each DMA buffer? which source file can I refer to for such information? Currently I'm looking at VFIO_IOMMU_DMA_MAP, it seems it only maps the base address of QEMU guest memory region to IOVA. Does this mean that later all GPA->HPA translation are based on that plus some offsets? (2). Is it possible for me to disable IOMMU page tables as I just want to give the device a host physical address? Any pointers on how I can achieve this would be appreciated. Thanks. Best, Huaicheng
