For the unlikely use case where multiple aux domains from the same pdev
are attached to a single guest and then bound to a single process
(thus same PASID) within that guest, we cannot easily support this case
by refcounting the number of users. As there is only one SL page table
per PASID while we have multiple aux domains thus multiple SL page tables
for the same PASID.
Extra unbinding guest PASID can happen due to race between normal and
exception cases. Termination of one aux domain may affect others unless
we actively track and switch aux domains to ensure the validity of SL
page tables and TLB states in the shared PASID entry.
Support for sharing second level PGDs across domains can reduce the
complexity but this is not available due to the limitations on VFIO
container architecture. We can revisit this decision once sharing PGDs
are available.
Overall, the complexity and potential glitch do not warrant this unlikely
use case thereby removed by this patch.

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.
