Hi Joerg,
Thanks for reviewing my patch.

Hi,
this looks a bit confusing to me because I can see no checking whether
the device actually supports scalable mode.
Yes. I should put some checking there. Device scalable mode capability
is exposed in PCI extended capability list.

This code sets a flag to mark scalable mode enabled. Doesn't the device
need some handling too, like enabling the PASID capability and all?
Yes. My design was rough. We should prepare the device for scalable mode
instead of assuming that everything is ready.

Why is this checking the auxd_enabled flag?
We need an API to check whether this feature is enabled. In vfio, it
is used like below,
if (iommu_dev_has_feat(dev, FEAT_AUX_DOMAIN))
iommu_aux_attach_device(dev, domain)
else
iommu_attach_device(dev, domain)
The function should just
return whether the device _supports_ scalable mode, not whether it is
enabled.
Do we want to have an API to tell whether device has aux-domain feature?
It could be included in the enable API. The enable API returns failure
if device doesn't support aux-domain.
