RE: [PATCH 1/6 v8] iommu/fsl: Store iommu domain information pointer in archdata.
Thanks for the clarification Alexey.
Kumar,
We are using this new field (for PAMU) to store the iommu domain (for iommu
API) information for a device.

Hi!
On POWERNV we use only the part of IOMMU API which handles devices and
groups. We do not use IOMMU domains as VFIO containers do everything we
need for VFIO and we do not implement iommu_ops as it is not very
relevant to our architecture (does not give dma window properties, etc).
So your work does not overlap with my work :)

Re: [PATCH 1/6 v8] iommu/fsl: Store iommu domain information pointer in archdata.
btw the device struct already has a pointer to its iommu_group, and the
iommu_group struct itself has a pointer void *iommu_data which you could
use for anything you want (iommu_group_get_iommudata(),
iommu_group_set_iommudata()).
By design you are expected to add iommu groups to a domain but not devices
so I am not so sure that you really need a pointer to domain in the device
struct.

Hi Kumar,Ben,
I am implementing the Freescale PAMU (IOMMU) driver using the Linux IOMMU API.
In this particular patch, I have added a new field to dev_archdata structure to
store the dma domain information.
This field is updated whenever we attach a device to an iommu domain.
