When devices are attached to the amd_iommu in a kdump kernel, the old device
table entries (DTEs), which were copied from the crashed kernel, will be
overwritten with a new domain number. When the new DTE is written, the IOMMU
is told to flush the DTE from its internal cache--but it is not told to flush
the translation cache entries for the old domain number.
Without this patch, AMD systems using the tg3 network driver fail when kdump
tries to save the vmcore to a network system, showing network timeouts and
(sometimes) IOMMU errors in the kernel log.
This patch will flush IOMMU translation cache entries for the old domain when
a DTE gets overwritten with a new domain number.

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.
