Guilty as charged - the suggestion was definitely borne out of convenience. I originally looked at adding this functionality to the MSI domains but couldn't find an obvious way to enumerate all of them. Also, the way the domain hierarchy is setup for MSI controllers, the actual doorbell is not available to the MSI domains. > > In the v14 release I moved the "doorbell API" in the dma-iommu API since > Alex recommended to offer a unified API where all pieces would be at the > same place. > > Anyway I will follow the guidance of maintainers.
