Got it. The reason here is to pass the bus and devfn info, so that VFIO
can figure out a container for the operation. So far in QEMU, there is
no good way to connect the vIOMMU emulator and VFIO regards to
SVM. hw/pci layer is a choice based on some previous discussion. But
yes, I agree with you that we may need to have an explicit notion for
SVM. Do you think it is good to introduce a new abstract layer for SVM
(may name as SVMContext). The idea would be that vIOMMU maintain
the SVMContext instances and expose explicit interface for VFIO to get
it. Then VFIO register notifiers on to the SVMContext. When vIOMMU
emulator wants to do PASID alloc/free, it fires the corresponding
notifier. After call into VFIO, the notifier function itself figure out the
container it is bound. In this way, it's the duty of vIOMMU emulator to
figure out a proper notifier to fire. From interface point of view, it is no
longer per-device. Also, it leaves the PASID management details to
vIOMMU emulator as it can be vendor specific. Does it make sense?
Also, I'd like to know if you have any other idea on it. That would
surely be helpful. :-)

I see. May be the SVMContext instance above can include multiple PASID
address spaces. And again, I think this relationship should be maintained
in vIOMMU emulator.
