Oh for sure, I didn't mean to imply that that code is a complete ready-made solution, just that in general it seems a fairly straightforward thing to handle without touching the PCI core: - We already have to know whichever parent device has the msi-map/iommu-map/IORT table. - We're aware of that parent at the point we're doing the DMA/MSI configuration. - Therefore those operations already have everything they need for their callback to be able to stop when it reaches the relevant parent device. Doing it in a firmware-agnostic manner is merely an implementation detail. Since we'll basically be funnelling both MSI and IOMMU RID translation through a common code path, there should only need to be be one place to handle the DMA alias walk - with that first cut of my PCI/generic IOMMU bindings series I didn't try very hard to refactor things - v2 (probably post-merge-window now) will be a bit more thorough, now that I have a better idea of what thing should look like Ignore what arm-smmu-v3.c does, because it's wrong anyway. I need to fix that in the next version as well, even if it's just calling out directly to of_pci_map_rid rather than a proper of_xlate implementation. Now what I realise I *have* missed is the alias detection in iommu_get_group_for_dev, to which the "known parent device" reasoning doesn't apply, and phantom aliasing might well muck things up. Thinking further, if these upstream bridges exist but don't affect the outgoing RID, then might it make sense to quirk them as transparent? (I have no actual objection to this patch, though, and at this point I'm just chucking ideas about).
