I have such machine (with sane BIOS).

But if BIOS is broken, early_gart_iommu_check() disables GART_EN bit
(bits 0)?

> 1. iommu=soft, will go through POINT A and POINT B

Not always. if aperture_valid() is true, it doesn't go POINT A. My
GART machine doesn't go.


> 2. no "iommu=soft", will go through POINT A and POINT C

As I said, it's not true about POINT A.


> and all will reach POINT X to make sure ENABLE bit is not set.

POINT X doesn't look make sure ENABLE bit is not set. It just fixes up
(sets) the address and its size.

And with 2.6.31, if I use iommu=soft, my GART machine uses swiotlb but
it still keeps GART_EN bit enabled.

So for what does 'iommu=soft' go to POINT B and POINT X? That is, why
we can't skip them with 'iommu=soft'?

What should such system use in this case?

This 'setting first and restoring later' code is hacky. It's better to
set only when we necessary.
