Add a new field in the device (powerpc) archdata structure for storing iommu domain
information pointer. This pointer is stored when the device is attached to a particular
domain.

Please Cc the PowerPC Maintainers on this, so that they can have a look
at it. This also must be put this into an #ifdef CONFIG_IOMMU_API.

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.

Regards
Varun

Would be good to see if this overlaps with Alexey's work for IOMMU driver for powernv.

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 :)

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.

Varun

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.

Well, at the lowest level the IOMMU API does attach devices to domains-- i.e.
API attach_dev().  So, it seems to conceptually make sense to have a ptr
from the device to the associated domain.  When you implement attach_dev()
you need to be able to see whether the device is already attached to
a domain.   Adding a couple of levels of indirection...from device to
group to domain...doesn't seems to make things simpler or better IMHO.

x86 keeps a pointer to the domain in device archdata and since there is
a direct correlation between a device and domain I'd rather see it
where this patch has it.

As Stuart stated this allows us to maintain the device <-> domain relationship at the lowest level.
