This work has been presented at Xen Summit 2024 during the
IOMMU paravirtualization and Xen IOMMU subsystem rework
design session.
Operating systems may want to have access to a IOMMU in order to do DMA
protection or implement certain features (e.g VFIO on Linux).
VFIO support is mandatory for framework such as SPDK, which can be useful to
implement an alternative storage backend for virtual machines [1].
In this patch series, we introduce in Xen the ability to manage several
contexts per domain and provide a new hypercall interface to allow guests
to manage IOMMU contexts.
The VT-d driver is updated to support these new features.
