Intel-IOMMU, intr-remap: source-id checking
To support domain-isolation usages, the platform hardware must be
capable of uniquely identifying the requestor (source-id) for each
interrupt message. Without source-id checking for interrupt remapping
, a rouge guest/VM with assigned devices can launch interrupt attacks
to bring down anothe guest/VM or the VMM itself.
This patch adds source-id checking for interrupt remapping, and then
really isolates interrupts for guests/VMs with assigned devices.
Because PCI subsystem is not initialized yet when set up IOAPIC
entries, use read_pci_config_byte to access PCI config space directly.
