I would expect that for the root complex, the iommu-map should cover all possible RIDs (and hence we would know their output IDs). In the case that a possible RID was not translated by the property, I would hope that we could either detect this at parse time, or prevent probing of the device when it appeared. The root complex could share IOMMUs with other masters, so in general iommu-map alone would not be sufficient to detect all possible IDs. > Furthermore, would representing one-to-many mappings by having multiple > matches for a given RID be legal?

I'd expect no-one would implement separate read and write IDs, given that the IOMMU should distinguish reads and writes anyway.

It really depends on the format of your iommu-specifier. In the degenerate case, you can simply provide each RID with its own translation and a full iommu-specifier, though that could take an appeciable amount of space. I would hope that for PCI you shouldn't need to describe the transformation of memory attributes, however.
