I think the patchset is fine. It routes all access through pci_dma_rw(), which accepts a PCIDevice. We can later define pci_dma_rw() in terms of the memory API and get the benefit of the memory hierarchy.The challenge is what you do about something like ne2k where the core chipset can either be a PCI device or an ISA device. You would have to implement a wrapper around pci_dma_rw() in order to turn it into cpu_physical_memory_rw when doing ISA.
True. But I still think it's the right thing.We can't really pass a MemoryRegion as the source address, since there is no per-device MemoryRegion. We can use pci_address_space() for basic offsetting, and for bypassing bridge windows, but iommu source detection has to use the PCIDevice directly.
