So if we bind the same mm to two different devices, we should get two different iommu_sva handle, right? I think intel-svm still needs a flag argument for supervisor pasid etc. Other than that, I think both interface should work for vt-d. Another question is that for nested SVA, we will need to bind guest mm. Do you think we should try to reuse this or have it separate?

Just curious why making the handle private instead of returning the pasid value in the handle? > void iommu_sva_set_exit_handler(struct iommu_sva *handle, > iommu_mm_exit_handler_t > mm_exit); > > I think at least the AMD IOMMU driver needs more call-backs like a > handler that is invoked when a fault can not be resolved.
