The guest gets a dma range from the device-tree which is the range of device-side dma addresses it can use that correspond to the table. The guest kernel uses the normal linux iommu space allocator to allocate space in that region and uses H_PUT_TCE to populate the corresponding table entries. This is the same interface that is used for "real" iommu's with PCI devices btw.
