It gives information about requirements the userspace needs to implement
plus other features characterizing the physical implementation.

I guess you meant after selecting VFIO_TYPE1_NESTING_IOMMU?

Isn't it possible to be more explicit, something like:
|
System-wide PASID management is mandated by the physical IOMMU. All
PASIDs allocation must be mediated through the TBD API.

As per your answer in https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/7/6/383, I now
understand ARM would not expose that BIND_PGTBL nesting feature, I still
think the above wording is a bit confusing. Maybe you may explicitly
talk about the PASID *entry* that needs to be passed from guest to host.
On ARM we directly pass the PASID table but when reading the above
description I fail to determine if this does not fit that description.

instead of using the "uAPI provided by userspace driver framework (e.g.
VFIO)", can't we use the so-called IOMMU UAPI terminology which now has
a userspace documentation?

shouldn't it be @argsz to fit the iommu uapi convention and take benefit
to put the flags field just below?
