[PATCH v11 04/11] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Add ARM_SMMU_FEAT_EVTQ for the event queue

Mon Oct 5 12:30:47 PDT 2026


The driver programs and enables the event queue unconditionally, while the
PRI queue has an ARM_SMMU_FEAT_PRI gating each of its touch points. Yet a
kdump kernel wants to leave both of the queues alone, which would take an
is_kdump_kernel() test at every one of those places.

Add an ARM_SMMU_FEAT_EVTQ that the probe always sets, as the event queue is
architecturally mandatory, and gate the queue's allocation, its interrupt,
its MSI vector, and its CR0 and IRQ_CTRL enables on it. A subsequent change
will turn the queue off in a single place.

No functional change intended.
