An iommufd fault object provides an interface for delivering I/O page faults to user space. These objects are created and destroyed by user space, and they can be associated with or dissociated from hardware page table objects during page table allocation or destruction. User space interacts with the fault object through a file interface. This interface offers a straightforward and efficient way for user space to handle page faults. It allows user space to read fault messages sequentially and respond to them by writing to the same file. The file interface supports reading messages in poll mode, so it's recommended that user space applications use io_uring to enhance read and write efficiency. A fault object can be associated with any iopf-capable iommufd_hw_pgtable during the pgtable's allocation. All I/O page faults triggered by devices when accessing the I/O addresses of an iommufd_hw_pgtable are routed through the fault object to user space. Similarly, user space's responses to these page faults are routed back to the iommu device driver through the same fault object.
