Hi Chenfeng,
Seems IOMMU group may help you, please take a look at
Documentation/vfio.txt.
Thanks!

This is what IOMMU domains are all about: devices in one domain are
isolated from devices in different domains, so all you need to do is
make sure all devices that want to share buffers are attached to the
same domain, then they will all share that domain's IOVA space.
