AIUI from previously questioning this, the change is hidden behind a build-time config option and only custom kernels or distros optimized for this sort of support would enable that build option. I'm more than a little dubious though that we're not going to have a wave of distros enabling this only to get user complaints that they can no longer make effective use of their devices for assignment due to the resulting span of the IOMMU groups, nor is there any sort of compromise, configure the kernel for p2p or device assignment, not both. Is this really such a unique feature that distro users aren't going to be asking for both features? Thanks, Alex
