I think we may use task_struct pointer to make type1 code consistent.
How do you think?

For question (1), I think we only need to take care about malicious
userspace process. As vfio usage is under privilege mode, so we may
be safe on it so far. However, we may need to introduce a kind of credit
mechanism to protect it. I've thought it, but no good idea yet. Would be
happy to hear from you.

For question (2), I think we need to reclaim the allocated pasids when
the vfio container fd is released just like what vfio does to the domain
mappings. I didn't add it yet. But I can add it in next version if you think
it would make the pasid alloc/free be much sound.

yes, it is unnecessary to hold the lock here. At least for the operations in
this patch. will remove it. :-)

ioasid_set_data() was called  in one patch from Jacob's vSVA patchset.
[PATCH v6 08/10] iommu/vt-d: Add bind guest PASID support
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/22/946

The basic idea is to allocate pasid with private=NULL, and set it when the
pasid is actually bind to a device (bind_gpasid()). Each bind_gpasid() will
increase the ref_cnt in the private data, and each unbind_gpasid() will
decrease the ref_cnt. So if bind/unbind_gpasid() is called in mirror, the
private data should be null when comes to free operation. If not, vfio can
believe that the pasid is still in use.
