yes, we have a version field in struct iommu_gpasid_bind_data. How
about doing sanity check per versions? kernel knows the gbind_data
size of specific versions. Does it make sense? If yes, I'll also apply it
to the other sanity check in this series to avoid userspace fail after
kernel update.

I think I should drop it so far since I only add BIND_GUEST_PASID. I think
Jean Philippe may need it in his native SVA enabling patchset. For the way
to let user learn it, may be using VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO as you mentioned
below?

I remember there is an early comment in community which pointed out
that using flags potentially allows to config multiples types in one IOCTL.
Regards to it, defining explicit emums avoids it. But I agree with you,
it makes variant size. I'll fix it if this matter more.

yes, let me make it in next version.

This is due to the intention to support BIND_GUEST_PASID and
BIND_PROCESS with a single IOCTL. Maybe we can use a separate
IOCTL for BIND_PROCESS. what's your opinion here?

The info is provided by vIOMMU emulator (e.g. virtual VT-d). The vSVA patch
from Jacob has a sanity check on it.

I think VFIO_IOMMU_GET_INFO could help. let me extend it to fill this gap
if you agree.
