[Xen-devel] [PATCH 1/2] x86/mm/p2m: don't needlessly limit MMIO mapping order to 4k

2018-10-29 Thread Paul Durrant
The P2M common code currently restricts the MMIO mapping order of any domain with IOMMU mappings, but that is not using shared tables, to 4k. This has been shown to have a huge performance cost when passing through a PCI device with a very large BAR (e.g. NVIDIA P40), increasing the guest boot time
