Yes, that's right. Will change this text.

Yes, you are right. I passed it as an argument thinking that I could make one
assignment less in this function. The caller of this function
iommu_group_store_type() already has prv_dom, so just passed it. But, will
change this so that instead of every caller getting and passing the argument,
it's easier to do it in this function.

I wasn't sure on how to handle the error ☹
i.e. group's domain/default_domain are already updated to new domain and assume
there are 'n' devices in the group and this failed for 'k'th device, I wasn't
sure how I could roll back the changes made for k-1 devices. So, I thought
probably just alert the user that there was an error while changing default
domain type and try updating for other devices in the group (hopefully other
devices might succeed). Also, *generally* we shouldn't see any errors here
because all these devices were already in the same group earlier (we aren’t
adding/removing new devices to the group). We are just changing default domain
type and we already made sure that device could be in the requested default
domain type.

I think, Joerg talks about two issues here
1. is_driver_bound() takes/releases device_lock() which could race with device
driver probing code i.e. in an other terminal user could try to unload/load the
module.
2. We cannot do as you suggested above because the functions (one is mentioned
below) that switch default domain need to take iommu_group_mutex lock. So,
taking the mutex and then calling iommu functions that switch default domain
will dead lock.

Yes.. you are right. All these four combinations are presently handled in the
code.
The comment above talks about combinations that lead us to select DMA domain.
The cases you mentioned above are handled as:
1. dma_devs == 0 && idt_devs == 0 -> In code, req_type = IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA;
because this means *all* the devices in the group can be in either of identity
domain or DMA domain, hence select DMA domain over identity domain.
2. dma_devs != 0 && idt_devs == 0 -> In code, req_type = IOMMU_DOMAIN_DMA;
because this means some devices in the group *should* be in DMA domain and
other devices in the group could be in either of identity domain or DMA domain.
3. dma_devs == 0 && idt_devs != 0 -> In code, req_type = IOMMU_DOMAIN_IDENTITY;
because this means some devices in the group *should* be in identity domain and
other devices in the group could be in either of identity domain or DMA domain.
4. dma_devs != 0 && idt_devs != 0 -> In code, return error, because this means
some devices in the group *should* be in identity domain and other devices in
the group *should* be in DMA domain. This combination is not expected. This
situation shouldn't arise because this would have failed during boot itself
because these kind of devices aren't grouped together in the first place.

Because the below call stack takes iommu_group_mutex. I drop the lock here to
facilitate it, otherwise the kernel hangs trying to get the same lock which it
is already holding on to
mutex_lock(&group->mutex);
iommu_group_remove_device()
intel_iommu_remove_device()
iommu_release_device()
iommu_group_change_def_domain()
