Up until now PPC64 managed to avoid using iommu_ops. The VFIO driver uses a SPAPR TCE sub-driver and all iommu_ops uses were kept in the Type1 VFIO driver. Recent development added 2 uses of iommu_ops to the generic VFIO which broke POWER: - a coherency capability check; - blocking IOMMU domain - iommu_group_dma_owner_claimed()/... This adds a simple iommu_ops which reports support for cache coherency and provides a basic support for blocking domains. No other domain types are implemented so the default domain is NULL. Since now iommu_ops controls the group ownership, this takes it out of VFIO. This adds an IOMMU device into a pci_controller (=PHB) and registers it in the IOMMU subsystem, iommu_ops is registered at this point. This setup is done in postcore_initcall_sync. This replaces iommu_group_add_device() with iommu_probe_device() as the former misses necessary steps in connecting PCI devices to IOMMU devices. This adds a comment about why explicit iommu_probe_device() is still needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
