Yes.

SWIOTLB is not only used when IOMMU_BOUCE_PAGE is enabled.

Please check this code:

static dma_addr_t intel_map_page(struct device *dev, struct page *page,
                                  unsigned long offset, size_t size,
                                  enum dma_data_direction dir,
                                  unsigned long attrs)
{
         if (iommu_need_mapping(dev))
                 return __intel_map_single(dev, page_to_phys(page) + offset,
                                 size, dir, *dev->dma_mask);
         return dma_direct_map_page(dev, page, offset, size, dir, attrs);
}

The dma_direct_map_page() will eventually call swiotlb_map() if the
buffer is beyond the address capability of the device.

Best regards,
Baolu
