[ Upstream commit7d6e132965] The following functional changes were needed for backport: - vfio_iommu_type1_get_info doesn't exist, call vfio_iommu_dma_avail_build_caps from vfio_iommu_type1_ioctl. - As further fallout from this, vfio_iommu_dma_avail_build_caps must acquire and release the iommu mutex lock. To do so, the return value is stored in a local variable as in vfio_iommu_iova_build_caps. Upstream commit description: Commit492855939b("vfio/type1: Limit DMA mappings per container") added the ability to limit the number of memory backed DMA mappings. However on s390x, when lazy mapping is in use, we use a very large number of concurrent mappings. Let's provide the current allowable number of DMA mappings to userspace via the IOMMU info chain so that userspace can take appropriate mitigation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
