When remapping hardware is configured by system software in scalable mode as Nested (PGTT=011b) and with PWSNP field Set in the PASID-table-entry, it may Set Accessed bit and Dirty bit (and Extended Access bit if enabled) in first-stage page-table entries even when second-stage mappings indicate that corresponding first-stage page-table is Read-Only.
As the result, contents of pages designated by VMM as Read-Only can be modified by IOMMU via PML5E (PML4E for 4-level tables) access as part of address translation process due to DMAs issued by Guest.
This disallows read-only mappings in the domain that is supposed to be used as nested parent. Reference from Sapphire Rapids Specification Update [1], errata details, SPR17. Userspace should know this limitation by checking the IOMMU_HW_INFO_VTD_ERRATA_772415_SPR17 flag reported in the IOMMU_GET_HW_INFO ioctl.
