when the scalable mode is enabled, there is no second level page translation pointer in the context entry any more (for DMA request without PASID). Instead, a new RID2PASID field is introduced in the context entry. Software can choose any PASID value to set RID2PASID and then setup the translation in the corresponding PASID entry. Upon receiving a DMA request without PASID, hardware will firstly look at this RID2PASID field and then treat this request as a request with a pasid value specified in RID2PASID field. Though software is allowed to use any PASID for the RID2PASID, we will always use the PASID 0 as a sort of design decision.

README
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.
