Hi Jason,

I still think it is smarter to push a group of RID's into a global

The proposed ioasid_set change in this set has a token for each set of
IOASIDs.

/**
 * struct ioasid_set - Meta data about ioasid_set

 * @xa:		XArray to store ioasid_set private IDs, can be used for

 * @token:	Unique to identify an IOASID set
 * @type:	Token types
 * @quota:	Max number of IOASIDs can be allocated within the set
 * @nr_ioasids:	Number of IOASIDs currently allocated in the set
 * @id:		ID of the set
 */
struct ioasid_set {
	struct atomic_notifier_head nh;
	struct xarray xa;
	void *token;
	int type;
	int quota;
	atomic_t nr_ioasids;
	int id;
	struct rcu_head rcu;
	struct misc_cg *misc_cg; /* For misc cgroup accounting */
};

To satisfy your "give me a PASID for this RID" proposal, can we just use
the RID's struct device as the token? Also add a type field to explicitly
indicate global vs per-set(per-RID). i.e.

ioasid_t ioasid_alloc(struct ioasid_set *set, ioasid_t min, ioasid_t max,
		       int type, void *private)
Where flags can be:
enum ioasid_hwid_type {
	IOASID_HWID_GLOBAL,
	IOASID_HWID_PER_SET,
};

We are really talking about the HW IOASID, just a reminder.

Thanks,

Jacob
