When running virt-host-validate on an s390x host, the tool currently
warns that it is "Unknown if this platform has IOMMU support".
We can use the common check for entries in sys/kernel/iommu_groups here,
too, but it only makes sense to check it if there are also PCI devices
available. It's also common on s390x that there are no PCI devices
assigned to the LPAR, and in that case there is no need for the
PCI-related IOMMU, so without PCI devices we should simply skip this
test.

... this doesn't seem to work, no? The files in /sys/bus/pci/devices are
actually soft-links and are not counted by stat, am I wrong? At least on
my setup with a PCI device and populated sysfs it will still skip the
check.
Bummer. Stupid thinko. And I don't have a real PCI card for testing
here, so I did not notice. So I guess I have to use opendir() +
readdir() instead to find out if there are entries in this directory?

Thomas,
seems correct but you should use the libvirt wrappers.
I tried it out with this:
+ DIR *dir;
+ struct dirent *entry;
...
+ if (virDirOpenIfExists(&dir, "/sys/bus/pci/devices") > 0 &&
+ (virDirRead(dir, &entry, NULL)) <= 0)
return 0;
...and it worked.
You want to add VIR_DIR_CLOSE(dir) somewhere as well.
