For the case of 1M, I would like to know what's the use case for a single

For some scenarios every guest PASID will require a IOASID ID # so
there is a large enough demand that FDs alone are not a good fit.
Further there are global container wide properties that are hard to
carry over to a multi-FD model, like the attachment of devices to the
container at the startup.
So if we implement per fd model. The global "container" properties could
be done via the parent fd. E.g attaching the parent to the device at the
startup.
So this RFC treats fd as a container of address spaces which is each
tagged by an IOASID.
If the container and address space is 1:1 then the container seems useless.
The examples at the bottom of the document show multiple IOASIDs in
the container for a parent/child type relationship
This can also be done per fd? A fd parent can have multiple fd childs.
