True, to that effect we are working on trying to move PASID allocation outside of VFIO, so both agents VFIO and vDPA with PASID, when that comes available can support one way to allocate and manage PASID's from user space. Since the IOASID is almost standalone, this is possible. _______________________________________________ iommu mailing list iommu@lists.linux-foundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/iommu
