Merge tag 'for-linus-iommufd' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgg/iommufd
Pull iommufd updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"On top of the vfio updates is built some new iommufd functionality:
- IOMMU_HWPT_ALLOC allows userspace to directly create the low level
IO Page table objects and affiliate them with IOAS objects that
hold the translation mapping. This is the basic functionality for
the normal IOMMU_DOMAIN_PAGING domains.
- VFIO_DEVICE_ATTACH_IOMMUFD_PT can be used to replace the current
translation. This is wired up to through all the layers down to the
driver so the driver has the ability to implement a hitless
replacement. This is necessary to fully support guest behaviors
when emulating HW (eg guest atomic change of translation)
- IOMMU_GET_HW_INFO returns information about the IOMMU driver HW
that owns a VFIO device. This includes support for the Intel iommu,
and patches have been posted for all the other server IOMMU.
