This is another thing I'm curious about. How do you handle this
situation today (before host bridge hot-add)?

The DMAR I'm not so worried about because as far as I know, there's no
such thing as a DMAR that's discovered by PCI enumeration. We should
discover it via ACPI, and that can happen before we enumerate anything
behind a host bridge, so I don't really see any ordering problem
between the DMAR and the PCI devices that would use it.

only need to have pci devices on that root bus scanned, and current intel iommu
maintain one device scope to drhd with pointer to pci device... that
need to be fixed
too.

translation: you have an ACPI-DMAR setup bug? a drhd can have multiple device
scopes, one of which can be "all devices under bus X uses this IOMMU".
If (dynamic) DMARs are scanned at root hot-plug time in ACPI hot-plug,
the proper dmar-init should be completed before any PCI devs are scanned
(and put into the proper iommu domain).


However, I know there *are* IOAPICs that are enumerated as PCI
devices, and I don't know whether we can deduce a relationship between
the IOAPIC and the devices that use it. Don't we have this problem
already? I assume that even without hot-adding a host bridge, we
might discover a PCI IOAPIC that was present at boot, and we'd have to
make sure to bind a driver to it before we use any of the PCI devices
connected to it. How does that work?

I converted it to acpi way to discover it, and it could handle that case.

will search _GSB and try to get pci device, if there is pci device
will try to get BAR as ioapic base.

something like:

if (!hid || strcmp(hid, "ACPI0009")) {
kfree(info);
return;
}
kfree(info);
memset(res, 0, sizeof(*res));
acpi_walk_resources(handle, METHOD_NAME__CRS, setup_res, res);
if (!res->flags)
return;
}

acpi_get_name(handle, ACPI_FULL_PATHNAME,&buffer);

gsi_base = gsb;
type = "IOxAPIC";
if (dev) {
ret = pci_enable_device(dev);
if (ret< 0)
goto exit_put;

pci_set_master(dev);

if (dev->class == PCI_CLASS_SYSTEM_PIC_IOAPIC)
