If you're bisecting why your peripherals stopped working, it's probably this CL. Specifically if you see this in your dmesg: Unexpected global fault, this could be serious ...then it's almost certainly this CL. Running your IOMMU-enabled peripherals with the IOMMU in bypass mode is insecure and effectively disables the protection they provide. There are few reasons to allow unmatched stream bypass, and even fewer good ones. This patch starts the transition over to make it much harder to run your system insecurely. Expected steps: 1. By default disable bypass (so anyone insecure will notice) but make it easy for someone to re-enable bypass with just a KConfig change. That's this patch. 2. After people have had a little time to come to grips with the fact that they need to set their IOMMUs properly and have had time to dig into how to do this, the KConfig will be eliminated and bypass will simply be disabled. Folks who are truly upset and still haven't fixed their system can either figure out how to add 'arm-smmu.disable_bypass=n' to their command line or revert the patch in their own private kernel. Of course these folks will be less secure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
