Provide a mock kernel module for the iommu_domain that allows it to run without any HW and the mocking provides a way to directly validate that the PFNs loaded into the iommu_domain are correct. This exposes the access kAPI toward userspace to allow userspace to explore the functionality of pages.c and io_pagetable.c The mock also simulates the rare case of PAGE_SIZE > iommu page size as the mock will operate at a 2K iommu page size. This allows exercising all of the calculations to support this mismatch. This is also intended to support syzkaller exploring the same space. However, it is an unusually invasive config option to enable all of this. The config option should not be enabled in a production kernel.

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.
