Hi,

Thanks for your review.

I see, I rethink implementation.

If ATU_AT_ENTRY_EN is 0, nothing happens. It does not work with IOMMU,
it works with the memory space set in device tree.
Also, I investigate about IOMMU_DOMAIN_BLOCKING.

I see, I will check DMA during map and unmap operations.

Since the devices that utilize this IOMMU function are fixed, I do not think that a special handshake is required.
Could you you tell me where you thought you needed a handshake?
