Subject: [PATCH V2 03/11] iommufd: Allow binding to a noiommu device
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 08:56:29 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312155637.376854-4-jacob.pan@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260312155637.376854-1-jacob.pan@linux.microsoft.com>
From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com>
Allow iommufd to bind devices without an IOMMU (noiommu mode) by creating
a dummy IOMMU group for such devices and skipping hwpt operations.
This enables noiommu devices to operate through the same iommufd API as IOMMU-
capable devices.
