By default, the IOMMU model built into the spapr virtual PCI host bridge
|
|
supports 4kiB and 64kiB IOMMU page sizes. However this can be overridden
|
|
which may be desirable to allow larger IOMMU page sizes when running a
|
|
guest with hugepage backing and passthrough devices. For that reason a
|
|
warning was printed when the device wasn't configured to allow the pagesize
|
|
with which guest RAM is backed.
|
|
|
|
Experience has proven, however, that this message is more confusing than
|
|
useful. Worse it sometimes makes little sense when the host-available page
|
|
sizes don't match those available on the guest, which can happen with
|
|
a POWER8 guest running on a POWER9 KVM host.
|
|
|
|
Long term we do want better handling to allow large IOMMU page sizes to be
|
|
used, but for now this parameter and warning don't really accomplish it.
|
|
So, remove the message, pending a better solution.
