Subject: [PATCH v5 2/9] iommufd: Support a HWPT without an iommu driver for noiommu
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 11:41:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260511184116.3687392-3-jacob.pan@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260511184116.3687392-1-jacob.pan@linux.microsoft.com>

From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com>

Create just a little part of a real iommu driver, enough to
slot in under the dev_iommu_ops() and allow iommufd to call
domain_alloc_paging_flags() and fail everything else.

This allows explicitly creating a HWPT under an IOAS.

A new Kconfig option IOMMUFD_NOIOMMU is introduced to differentiate
from the VFIO group/container based noiommu mode.

---
v5:
   - Use the new IOMMUFD_NOIOMMU Kconfig instead of VFIO_NOIOMMU
   - Use consistent wording referring to VFIO noiommu mode (Kevin)
   - Copyright date fix (Kevin)
v4:
   - Make iommufd_noiommu_ops const
v3:
   - Add comment to explain the design difference over the
     legacy noiommu VFIO code.
