[PATCH v2] xen/arm: fix gnttab_need_iommu_mapping



Commit 91d4eca7add broke gnttab_need_iommu_mapping on ARM.
The offending chunk is:

 #define gnttab_need_iommu_mapping(d)                    \
-    (is_domain_direct_mapped(d) && need_iommu(d))
+    (is_domain_direct_mapped(d) && need_iommu_pt_sync(d))

On ARM we need gnttab_need_iommu_mapping to be true for dom0 when it is
directly mapped and IOMMU is enabled for the domain, like the old check
did, but the new check is always false.

In fact, need_iommu_pt_sync is defined as dom_iommu(d)->need_sync and
need_sync is set as:

    if ( !is_hardware_domain(d) || iommu_hwdom_strict )
        hd->need_sync = !iommu_use_hap_pt(d);

iommu_use_hap_pt(d) means that the page-table used by the IOMMU is the
P2M. It is true on ARM. need_sync means that you have a separate IOMMU
page-table and it needs to be updated for every change. need_sync is set
to false on ARM. Hence, gnttab_need_iommu_mapping(d) is false too,
which is wrong.

As a consequence, when using PV network from a domU on a system where
IOMMU is on from Dom0, I get:

(XEN) smmu: /smmu@fd800000: Unhandled context fault: fsr=0x402, 
iova=0x8424cb148, fsynr=0xb0001, cb=0
[   68.290307] macb ff0e0000.ethernet eth0: DMA bus error: HRESP not OK

The fix is to go back to something along the lines of the old
implementation of gnttab_need_iommu_mapping.

Fixes: 91d4eca7add
Backport: 4.12+

---

Given the severity of the bug, I would like to request this patch to be
backported to 4.12 too, even if 4.12 is security-fixes only since Oct
2020.

For the 4.12 backport, we can use iommu_enabled() instead of
is_iommu_enabled() in the implementation of gnttab_need_iommu_mapping.

Changes in v2:
- improve commit message
- add is_iommu_enabled(d) to the check
