Your understanding is right.
But there is a problem that even if the namespace device in
rmrr is enumerated in the code, probe_acpi_namespace_devices() also doesn't
work for this device.
This is because the dev parameter of the
iommu_create_device_direct_mappings() is not the namespace device in RMRR.
The actual parameter passed in is the namespace device's
physical node device.
In iommu_create_device_direct_mappings(), the physical node
device passed in cannot match the namespace device in rmrr->device[],right?
We need acpi_device_create_direct_mappings() helper ?
In addition, adev->physical_node_list is related to the __HID
of namespace device reported by the bios.
For example, if the __HID reported by the bios belongs to
acpi_pnp_device_ids[], adev->physical_node_list has no devices.
So in acpi_device_create_direct_mappings(), I added the case
that adev->physical_node_list is empty.
Best regards

Sure. Before that, let me sync my understanding with you. You have an acpi
namespace device in ANDD table, it also shows up in the device scope of a RMRR.
Current code doesn't enumerate that device for the RMRR, hence
iommu_create_device_direct_mappings() doesn't work for this device.
At the same time, probe_acpi_namespace_devices() doesn't work for this device,
hence you want to add a home-made
acpi_device_create_direct_mappings() helper.
Did I get it right?

The namespace device has been probed and put in one drhd's device list.
Hence, it should be processed by probe_acpi_namespace_devices(). So the
question is why there are no devices in addev->physical_node_list?
