Thanks for catching it.

Will do.

Yes. it is. Btw. dev_set is not visible to user. Is it good to mention it
in uapi header especially w.r.t. the below potential relaxing of this
requirement?

I think your point is that if an iommufd_ctx has acquired DMA ownerhisp
of an iommu_group, it means the device is owned. And it should not
matter whether all the devices in the iommu_group is present in the
dev_set. It is allowed that some devices are bound to pci-stub or
pcieport driver. Is it?

Actually I have a doubt on it. IIUC, the above requirement on dev_set
is to ensure the reset to the devices are protected by the dev_set->lock.
So that either the reset issued by driver itself or a hot reset request
from user, there is no race. But if a device is not in the dev_set, then
hot reset request from user might race with the bound driver. DMA ownership
only guarantees the drivers won't handle DMA via DMA API which would have
conflict with DMA mappings from user. I'm not sure if it is able to
guarantee reset is exclusive as well. I see pci-stub and pcieport driver
are the only two drivers that set the driver_managed_dma flag besides the
vfio drivers. pci-stub may be fine. not sure about pcieport driver.

   #   line  filename / context / line
   1     39  drivers/pci/pci-stub.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   2    796  drivers/pci/pcie/portdrv.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   3    607  drivers/vfio/fsl-mc/vfio_fsl_mc.c <<GLOBAL>>

             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   5   1374  drivers/vfio/pci/mlx5/main.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   6    203  drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   7    139  drivers/vfio/platform/vfio_amba.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,
   8    120  drivers/vfio/platform/vfio_platform.c <<GLOBAL>>
             .driver_managed_dma = true,

Anyhow, I think this is not a must so far. is it? Even doable, it shall
be done in the future. :-)
