The iommu_sva_domain represents a hardware pagetable that the IOMMU
hardware could use for SVA translation. This adds some infrastructure
to support SVA domain in the iommu common layer. It includes:

- Add a new struct iommu_sva_domain and new IOMMU_DOMAIN_SVA
domain
type.
- Add a new domain ops pointer in iommu_ops. The IOMMU drivers that
support SVA should provide the callbacks.
- Add helpers to allocate and free an SVA domain.
- Add helpers to set an SVA domain to a device and the reverse
operation.

Some buses, like PCI, route packets without considering the PASID value.
Thus a DMA target address with PASID might be treated as P2P if the
address falls into the MMIO BAR of other devices in the group. To make
things simple, the attach/detach interfaces only apply to devices
belonging to the singleton groups, and the singleton is immutable in
fabric i.e. not affected by hotplug.

The iommu_set/block_device_pasid() can be used for other purposes,
such as kernel DMA with pasid, mediation device, etc. Hence, it is put
in the iommu.c.

usually we have 'set/clear' pair or 'allow/block'. Having 'set' paired
with 'block' doesn't read very clearly.

Yes. Let's still use the attach/detach semantics.


+static bool device_group_immutable_singleton(struct device *dev)
+{
+ struct iommu_group *group = iommu_group_get(dev);

what about passing group as the parameter since the caller will
get the group again right after calling this function? In that case
the function could be renamed as:

iommu_group_immutable_singleton()

or be shorter:

iommu_group_fixed_singleton()

Fair enough. I will tune it as below:

+static bool iommu_group_immutable_singleton(struct iommu_group *group)
+{
+ int count;
+
+ mutex_lock(&group->mutex);
+ count = iommu_group_device_count(group);
+ mutex_unlock(&group->mutex);
+
+ if (count != 1)
+ return false;
+
+ /*
+ * The PCI device could be considered to be fully isolated if all
+ * devices on the path from the device to the host-PCI bridge are
+ * protected from peer-to-peer DMA by ACS.
+ */
+ if (dev_is_pci(dev))
+ return pci_acs_path_enabled(to_pci_dev(dev), NULL,
+ REQ_ACS_FLAGS);
+
+ /*
+ * Otherwise, the device came from DT/ACPI, assume it is static and
+ * then singleton can know from the device count in the group.
+ */
+ return true;
+}



+ int count;
+
+ if (!group)
+ return false;
+
+ mutex_lock(&group->mutex);
+ count = iommu_group_device_count(group);
+ mutex_unlock(&group->mutex);
+ iommu_group_put(group);
+
+ if (count != 1)
+ return false;

For non-pci devices above doesn't check anything against immutable.
Please add some comment to explain why doing so is correct.

Yes, as above code shows.

+ /*
+ * The PCI device could be considered to be fully isolated if all

+ if (dev_is_pci(dev))
+ return pci_acs_path_enabled(to_pci_dev(dev), NULL,
+ REQ_ACS_FLAGS);
+
+ return true;
+}
