[PATCH 0/1] Mask VT-d DMAR faults for IGD devices



From: Brendan Kerrigan <kerriganb@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The Intel IOMMU for at least 8th and 9th generation Core processors has a bug
where the Fault Processing Disable bit is not respected for the Intel Graphics
Device (IGD). The resulting behavior was reported previously[1]. The underlying
cause is described by Intel as Errata ID 049 in the Core spec update
document[2], along with a suggested workaround, which is implemented in the
patch.
