[PATCH v2 2/2] iommufd: Report ATS not supported status via IOMMU_GET_HW_INFO
From: Shameer Kolothum
Date: Tue Mar 17 2026 - 07:21:48 EST
If the IOMMU driver reports that ATS is not supported for a device, set
the IOMMU_HW_CAP_PCI_ATS_NOT_SUPPORTED flag in the returned hardware
capabilities.
This uses a negative flag for UAPI compatibility. Existing userspace
assumes ATS is supported if no flag is present. This also ensures that
new userspace works correctly on both old and new kernels, where a
zero value implies ATS support.
When this flag is set, ATS cannot be used for the device. When it is
clear, ATS may be enabled when an appropriate HWPT is attached.
