The IOMMU subsystem has undergone some changes, including the removal
of iommu_ops from the bus structure. Consequently, the existing domain
allocation interface, which relies on a bus type argument, is no longer
relevant:

    struct iommu_domain *iommu_domain_alloc(struct bus_type *bus)

This series is designed to refactor the use of this interface. It
proposes two new interfaces to replace iommu_domain_alloc():

- iommu_user_domain_alloc(): This interface is intended for allocating
  iommu domains managed by userspace for device passthrough scenarios,
  such as those used by iommufd, vfio, and vdpa. It clearly indicates
  that the domain is for user-managed device DMA.

  If an IOMMU driver does not implement iommu_ops->domain_alloc_user,
  this interface will rollback to the generic paging domain allocation.

- iommu_paging_domain_alloc(): This interface is for allocating iommu
  domains managed by kernel drivers for kernel DMA purposes. It takes a
  device pointer as a parameter, which better reflects the current
  design of the IOMMU subsystem.

The majority of device drivers currently using iommu_domain_alloc() do
so to allocate a domain for a specific device and then attach that
domain to the device. These cases can be straightforwardly migrated to
the new interfaces.

However, there are some drivers with more complex use cases that do
not fit neatly into this new scheme. For example:

$ git grep "= iommu_domain_alloc"
arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:      mapping->domain = iommu_domain_alloc(bus);
drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c:    private->domain = iommu_domain_alloc(private->iommu_dev->bus);
drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/drm.c:            tegra->domain = iommu_domain_alloc(&platform_bus_type);
drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_uiom.c:       pd->domain = domain = iommu_domain_alloc(dev->bus);

This series leave those cases unchanged and keep iommu_domain_alloc()
for their usage. But new drivers should not use it anymore.

The whole series is also available on GitHub:

user paging domain? It looks to me user domain includes the nested domains
as well.

does it mean there is still domains allocated via iommu_domain_alloc()
on VT-d platform?

Yes, nested domain is a user domain. The iommu driver should implement
iommu_ops->domain_alloc_user for nested domain allocation.

I think the drivers mentioned above do not run on x86 platforms, or do
they?

Ooh, nice! This was rising back up my to-do list as well, but I concur 
it's rather more straightforward than my version that did devious things 
to keep the iommu_domain_alloc() name...

This one's simple enough, the refactor just needs to go one step deeper. 
I've just rebased and pushed my old patch for that, if you'd like it [1].

> drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_drv.c:    private->domain = iommu_domain_alloc(private->iommu_dev->bus);

Both this one and usnic_uiom_alloc_pd() should be OK - back when I did 
all the figuring out to clean up iommu_present(), I specifically 
reworked them into "dev->bus" style as a reminder that it *is* supposed 
to be the right device for doing this with, even if the attach is a bit 
more distant.

> drivers/gpu/drm/tegra/drm.c:            tegra->domain = iommu_domain_alloc(&platform_bus_type);

This is the tricky one, where the device to hand may *not* be the right 
device for IOMMU API use [2]. FWIW my plan was to pull the "walk the 
platform bus to find any IOMMU-mapped device" trick into this code and 
use it both to remove the final iommu_present() and for a device-based 
domain allocation.

I'd certainly be keen for it to be gone ASAP, since I'm seeing 
increasing demand for supporting multiple IOMMU drivers, and this is the 
last bus-based thing standing in the way of that.

Thanks,
Robin.

Great! With this change, we can safely replace iommu_domain_alloc().

Yeah! I will cleanup these two in the next version.

I am not familiar with this driver, so the solution you mentioned above
is the best option I can think of for now. I will incorporate this into
the next version.

Agreed. With all iommu_domain_alloc() removed, iommu_domain_alloc()
could be dropped.

will it be more clear to name iommu_user_domain_alloc() be
iommu_user_paging_domain_alloc() as it is mainly for paging domain
allocation?

cool. BTW. I know out-of-tree drivers are not counted in upstream review.
Just out of curious, is there a formal way to let such drivers know it is
no longer allowed to use iommu_domain_alloc() on VT-d?

That might be better; let's wait and see if there's another option.

As Robin suggested, we should try to remove iommu_domain_alloc() from
the tree in this series.

If it's completely dropped, that's fine. OOT drivers should fail in the
time of compiling.

Nothing, just because it wasn't that obvious. :-) I will convert it in
the next version.
