Sorry for my ignorance, but I don't understand what IOMMU groups are supposed to be or how to make use of them. It seems like a common idiom is to simply allocate a new group and add a device to it in the IOMMU's ->add_device() callback, but I fail to see the reason for that. Can anybody point me to documentation about this? I've looked and I did not find anything. Thierry
