PCI pass-thru devices in a Hyper-V VM are represented as a VMBus
device and as a PCI device. The coherence of the VMbus device is
set based on the VMbus node in ACPI, but the PCI device has no
ACPI node and defaults to not hardware coherent. This results
in extra software coherence management overhead on ARM64 when
devices are hardware coherent.

Fix this by propagating the coherence of the VMbus device to the
PCI device. There's no effect on x86/x64 where devices are
always hardware coherent.

Eww... if you really have to do this, I'd prefer to see a proper
hv_dma_configure() helper implemented and wired up to
pci_dma_configure(). Although since it's a generic property I guess at
worst pci_dma_configure could perhaps propagate coherency from the host
bridge to its children by itself in the absence of any other firmware
info. And it's built-in so could use arch_setup_dma_ops() like everyone
else.


I'm not seeing an existing mechanism to provide a "helper" or override
of pci_dma_configure(). Could you elaborate? Or is this something
that needs to be created?

I mean something like the diff below (other #includes omitted for clarity). Essentially if VMBus has its own way of describing parts of the system, then for those parts it's nice if it could fit into the same abstractions we use for firmware-based system description.

Cheers,
Robin.
