Hi Julien:
     Sorry for later response.
     MasterID you mentioned here is sbdf, right? Binding between sbdf
and vsbdf(virtual sbdf) should be in the device pass through related
interface(e.g, xc_domain_bind_pt_irq_int() has already done such similar
thing that bind vsbdf with real interrupt of hypervisor.).
     vIOMMU device model can get vsbdf when guest configure vIOMMU entry
and hypervisor can do conversion between sbdf and vsbdf. For interrupt
remapping on virtual VTD, we don't find such requirement so far and got
enough data from IOAPIC/MSI entry and interrupt remapping entry of
virtual VTD. So we don't extend pass through interface.
