Hi Joerg,
Thanks for this patch-set. With this patch-set we can implement our
owner device_group(), then we could achieve all the iommu devices into
the same m4u iommu-group easily.

This patch-set have been merged into v4.4-rc1 where I will get a
WARN while I test iommu_detach_device, below is the warning log:

>From the code, there are 2 places confuse me:
1. It seems that the iommu core has supposed that there is only one
device in each a group. In the iommu_detach_device/iommu_attach_device
there is a checking like this:

if (iommu_group_device_count(group) != 1) {
WARN_ON(1);
goto out_unlock;
}

Then for our case(there are many devices in a group), Could we delete
this checking?

2. iommu_detach_device will call __iommu_detach_group in which it will
return directly if group->iommu==group->default_iommu, Unfortunately
both will be the same if we call iommu_group_get_for_dev(). then
iommu_detach_device cann't finish the detach operation.
And if there are many devices in a group, It seems that we can not
detach whole the group in the iommu_detach_device.

/* ============================= */
Below is our add_device() and device_group(), if we call the wrong iommu
interface, please also tell me. Thanks.

static int mtk_iommu_add_device(struct device *dev)
{
struct iommu_group *group;

if (!dev->archdata.iommu) /* Not a iommu client device */
return -ENODEV;

group = iommu_group_get_for_dev(dev);
if (IS_ERR(group))
return PTR_ERR(group);

iommu_group_put(group);
return 0;
}

static struct iommu_group *mtk_iommu_device_group(struct device *dev)
{
struct mtk_iommu_data *data;
struct mtk_iommu_client_priv *priv;

priv = dev->archdata.iommu;
if (!priv)
return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);

/* All the client devices are in the same m4u iommu-group */
data = dev_get_drvdata(priv->m4udev);
if (!data->m4ugroup) {
data->m4ugroup = iommu_group_alloc();
if (IS_ERR(data->m4ugroup))
dev_err(dev, "Failed to allocate M4U IOMMU group
\n");
}
return data->m4ugroup;
}
