My understanding is that IOTLB_UNMAP is=20 only needed when there's a change the mapping from IOVA to page. So if we stick to the mapping, e.g during dma_unmap, we just put IOVA to=20 free list to be used by the next IOVA allocating. IOTLB_UNMAP could be=20 avoided. So we are not limited by how the pages are actually allocated? Thanks > >>>>> It's true that userspace can >>>>> access the dma buffer if userspace doesn't do the unmap.
