The IOMMU should always be set to default translated type after
the PMRs are disabled to protect the MLE from DMA.

Is this specific to Intel? It seems like it could easily be done commonly like the check for untrusted external devices.

Quietly ignoring the setting and possibly leaving iommu_def_domain_type uninitialised (note that 0 is not actually a usable type) doesn't seem great. AFAICS this probably warrants similar treatment to the mem_encrypt_active() case - there doesn't seem a great deal of value in trying to save users from themselves if they care about measured boot yet explicitly pass options which may compromise measured boot. If you really want to go down that route there's at least the sysfs interface you'd need to nobble as well, not to mention the various ways of completely disabling IOMMUs...

It might be reasonable to make IOMMU_DEFAULT_PASSTHROUGH depend on !SECURE_LAUNCH for clarity though.

Robin.
