"Output the hwpt ID" only happens when the caller input an IOAS object
and an auto domain was selected or created for the device.

Do I understand it right?

Technically it always outputs the hwpt, if a hwpt is in put then the
same hwpt is output.

From the code point of view, the pt_id is set only when an auto domain
is selected. Otherwise, it is untouched. Hence, probably we could
describe it more accurately in the comments. That is, if auto domain is
selected, its hwpt id will be returned in pt_id and the caller could
return it to userspace.


   EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(iommufd_device_attach, IOMMUFD);

If my above understanding is correct, then replace will never output a
hwpt id as it only happens after a successful attach.

Replace calls iommufd_device_auto_get_domain() which always sets pt_id
on success?

Yes. replace also calls iommufd_device_auto_get_domain().


If a HWPT was passed in then it just leaves it unchanged which is also
correct.

Functionally right. Above I just want to make the comment matches what
the real code does.
