Agree. VMID is equivalent to DID (domain id) in other vendor iommus. with /dev/iommu multiple I/O address spaces can share the same VMID via nesting. No need of exposing VMID to userspace to build the connection. Thanks, Kevin > > We're expecting to talk more about the /dev/iommu approach at Plumbers > in few weeks.
