From 0cd5c3c80a0ebd68c08312fa7d8c13149cc61c4c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle McMartin Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 14:29:19 -0800 Subject: x86: disable intel_iommu support by default Due to recurring issues with DMAR support on certain platforms. There's a number of filesystem corruption incidents reported: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479996 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12578 Provide a Kconfig option to change whether it is enabled by default. If disabled, it can still be reenabled by passing intel_iommu=on to the kernel. Keep the .config option off by default.
