Hello Julien,

Hi Andrii,

You can't unselect HAS_PASSTHROUGH support. Given that you are going to have passthrough in the future, I don't much see the point to try to allow that option to be disabled.
If we are speaking of R-Car Gen3, you might be right. We are targeting IPMMU support upstreamed. What about IOMMU-less platforms?
For everything you disable, you double the number of configuration possible. So we have to weight the benefits of disabling some code.

I believe that passthrough should be kept as core Xen, it is small and quite tight to the rest of Xen.

But I would be interested to know what would be the rationale to disable that. Do you foresee certification on IOMMU-less platform?

Cheers,
