IOMMU boot parameter on Virtual Server


Hi!

I'm training my duties as an "system administrator" on a cheap VPS, thus a virtual machine.

I'm reading that "iommu=force" boot parameter can prevent memory access to malicious or defective peripherals.

That seems good idea if there are only scarce memory resources,
but I'm not sure if it is applicable to a VPS too.

What do you think about ?

Kind regards Folk
