This series introduces an iova list associated with a vfio iommu. The list is kept updated taking care of iommu apertures, and reserved regions. Also this series adds checks for any conflict with existing dma mappings whenever a new device group is attached to the domain. User-space can retrieve valid iova ranges using VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO ioctl capability chains. Any dma map request outside the valid iova range will be rejected. v3 --> v4 Addressed comments received for v3. -dma_addr_t instead of phys_addr_t -LIST_HEAD() usage. -Free up iova_copy list in case of error. -updated logic in filling the iova caps info(patch #5) RFCv2 --> v3 Removed RFC tag. Addressed comments from Alex and Eric: - Added comments to make iova list management logic more clear. - Use of iova list copy so that original is not altered in case of failure. RFCv1 --> RFCv2 Addressed comments from Alex: -Introduced IOVA list management and added checks for conflicts with existing dma map entries during attach/detach.
