+===============================
+IOMMUFD BACKEND usage with VFIO
+===============================
+
+(Same meaning for backend/container/BE)
+
+With the introduction of iommufd, the Linux kernel provides a generic
+interface for user space drivers to propagate their DMA mappings to kernel
+for assigned devices. While the legacy kernel interface is group-centric,
+the new iommufd interface is device-centric, relying on device fd and iommufd.
+
+To support both interfaces in the QEMU VFIO device, introduce a base container
+to abstract the common part of VFIO legacy and iommufd container. So that the
+generic VFIO code can use either container.
+
+The base container implements generic functions such as memory_listener and
+address space management whereas the derived container implements callbacks
+specific to either legacy or iommufd. Each container has its own way to setup
+secure context and dma management interface. The below diagram shows how it
+looks like with both containers.
+
+::
+
+ VFIO AddressSpace/Memory
+ +-------+ +----------+ +-----+ +-----+
+ | pci | | platform | | ap | | ccw |
+ +---+---+ +----+-----+ +--+--+ +--+--+ +----------------------+
+ | | | | | AddressSpace |
+ | | | | +------------+---------+
+ +---V-----------V-----------V--------V----+ /
+ | VFIOAddressSpace | <------------+
+ | | | MemoryListener
+ | VFIOContainerBase list |
+ +-------+----------------------------+----+
+ | |
+ | |
+ +-------V------+ +--------V----------+

+ | |
+ | /dev/iommu | /dev/vfio/vfio
+ | /dev/vfio/devices/vfioX | /dev/vfio/$group_id
+ Userspace | |
+ ============+============================+===========================
+ Kernel | device fd |
+ +---------------+ | group/container fd
+ | (BIND_IOMMUFD | | (SET_CONTAINER/SET_IOMMU)
+ | ATTACH_IOAS) | | device fd
+ | | |
+ | +-------V------------V-----------------+
+ iommufd | | vfio |

+ | | |
+ +------V------+ +-----V------+ +------V--------+
+ | iommfd core | | device | | vfio iommu |
+ +-------------+ +------------+ +---------------+
+
+* Secure Context setup
+
+ - iommufd BE: uses device fd and iommufd to setup secure context
+ (bind_iommufd, attach_ioas)
+ - vfio legacy BE: uses group fd and container fd to setup secure context
+ (set_container, set_iommu)
+
+* Device access
+
+ - iommufd BE: device fd is opened through ``/dev/vfio/devices/vfioX``
+ - vfio legacy BE: device fd is retrieved from group fd ioctl
+
+* DMA Mapping flow
+
+ 1. VFIOAddressSpace receives MemoryRegion add/del via MemoryListener
+ 2. VFIO populates DMA map/unmap via the container BEs
+ * iommufd BE: uses iommufd
+ * vfio legacy BE: uses container fd
+
+Example configuration
+=====================
+
+Step 1: configure the host device
+---------------------------------
+
+It's exactly same as the VFIO device with legacy VFIO container.
+
+Step 2: configure QEMU
+----------------------
+
+Interactions with the ``/dev/iommu`` are abstracted by a new iommufd
+object (compiled in with the ``CONFIG_IOMMUFD`` option).
+
+Any QEMU device (e.g. VFIO device) wishing to use ``/dev/iommu`` must
+be linked with an iommufd object. It gets a new optional property
+named iommufd which allows to pass an iommufd object. Take ``vfio-pci``
+device for example:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ -object iommufd,id=iommufd0
+ -device vfio-pci,host=0000:02:00.0,iommufd=iommufd0
+
+Note the ``/dev/iommu`` and VFIO cdev can be externally opened by a
+management layer. In such a case the fd is passed, the fd supports a
+string naming the fd or a number, for example:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ -object iommufd,id=iommufd0,fd=22
+ -device vfio-pci,iommufd=iommufd0,fd=23
+
+If the ``fd`` property is not passed, the fd is opened by QEMU.
+
+If no ``iommufd`` object is passed to the ``vfio-pci`` device, iommufd
+is not used and the user gets the behavior based on the legacy VFIO
+container:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ -device vfio-pci,host=0000:02:00.0
+
+Supported platform
+==================
+
+Supports x86, ARM and s390x currently.
+
+Caveats
+=======
+
+Dirty page sync
+---------------
+
+Dirty page sync with iommufd backend is unsupported yet, live migration is
+disabled by default. But it can be force enabled like below, low efficient
+though.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ -object iommufd,id=iommufd0
+ -device vfio-pci,host=0000:02:00.0,iommufd=iommufd0,enable-migration=on
+
+P2P DMA
+-------
+
+PCI p2p DMA is unsupported as IOMMUFD doesn't support mapping hardware PCI
+BAR region yet. Below warning shows for assigned PCI device, it's not a bug.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ qemu-system-x86_64: warning: IOMMU_IOAS_MAP failed: Bad address, PCI BAR?
+ qemu-system-x86_64: vfio_container_dma_map(0x560cb6cb1620, 0xe000000021000, 0x3000, 0x7f32ed55c000) = -14 (Bad address)
+
+FD passing with mdev
+--------------------
+
+``vfio-pci`` device checks sysfsdev property to decide if backend is a mdev.
+If FD passing is used, there is no way to know that and the mdev is treated
+like a real PCI device. There is an error as below if user wants to enable
+RAM discarding for mdev.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ qemu-system-x86_64: -device vfio-pci,iommufd=iommufd0,x-balloon-allowed=on,fd=9: vfio VFIO_FD9: x-balloon-allowed only potentially compatible with mdev devices
+
+``vfio-ap`` and ``vfio-ccw`` devices don't have same issue as their backend
+devices are always mdev and RAM discarding is force enabled.
