So I'm not sure what else you want there? For P2P we know if the DMA will go through the IOMMU or not based on the PCIe fabric path between the initiator (the one doing the DMA) and the target (the one providing the MMIO memory). Depending on PCIe topology and ACS flags this path may use the IOMMU or may skip the IOMMU. To put it in code, the 'enum pci_p2pdma_map_type' can only be determined once we know the initator and target struct device. PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_BUS_ADDR means we don't use the iommu. PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_THRU_HOST_BRIDGE means we do. With this API it is important that a single request always has the same PCI_P2PDMA_MAP_* outcome, and the simplest way to do that is to split requests if the MMIO memory changes target struct devices.
