The NVMe co-processor on the Apple M1 uses a DMA address filter called SART for some DMA transactions. This adds a simple driver used to configure the memory regions from which DMA transactions are allowed. Unlike a real IOMMU, SART does not support any pagetables and can't be implemented inside the IOMMU subsystem using iommu_ops. It also can't be implemented using dma_map_ops since not all DMA transactions of the NVMe controller are filtered by SART. Instead, most buffers have to be registered using the integrated NVMe IOMMU and we can't have two separate dma_map_ops implementations for a single device.

README
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.
