Linux kernel source tree
There is a DoS concern on the shared hardware event queue among devices passed through to VMs, that too many translation failures that belong to VMs could overflow the shared hardware event queue if those VMs or their VMMs don't handle/recover the devices properly. The MEV bit in the STE allows to configure the SMMU HW to merge similar event records, though there is no guarantee. Set it in a nested STE for DoS mitigations. In the future, we might want to enable the MEV for non-nested cases too such as domain->type == IOMMU_DOMAIN_UNMANAGED or even IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA.

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 reStructuredText 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.
