Junming Liu 1f1eb7fdba hv:disable iommu snoop control to enable gvt-d by an option
If one of the enabled VT-d DMAR units
doesn’t support snoop control,
then bit 11 of leaf PET of EPT is not set,
since the field is treated as reserved(0)
by VT-d hardware implementations
not supporting snoop control.

GUP IOMMU doesn’t support snoop control,
this patch add an option to disable
iommu snoop control for gvt-d.

v2 -> v3:
        * refine the MICRO name and description.

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
