ISM devices are virtual PCI devices used for cross-LPAR communication. Unlike real PCI devices ISM devices do not use the hardware IOMMU but inspects IOMMU translation tables directly on IOTLB flush (s390 RPCIT instruction). ISM devices keep their DMA allocations static and only very rarely DMA unmap at all. For each IOTLB flush that occurs after unmap the ISM devices will however inspect the area of the IOVA space indicated by the flush. This means that for the global IOTLB flushes used by the flush queue mechanism the entire IOVA space would be inspected. In principle this would be fine, albeit potentially unnecessarily slow, it turns out however that ISM devices are sensitive to seeing IOVA addresses that are currently in use in the IOVA range being flushed. Seeing such in-use IOVA addresses will cause the ISM device to enter an error state and become unusable. Fix this by claiming IOMMU_CAP_DEFERRED_FLUSH only for non-ISM devices. This makes sure IOTLB flushes only cover IOVAs that have been unmapped and also restricts the range of the IOTLB flush potentially reducing latency spikes.

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.
