Any device which belongs to an "IOMMU group" (used by vfio) will have links to all devices of its group listed in /sys/bus/pci/$device/iommu_group/devices; /sys/bus/pci/$device/iommu_group is actually a link to /sys/kernel/iommu_groups/$n, where $n is the group number (there will be a corresponding device node at /dev/vfio/$n once the devices are bound to the vfio-pci driver) The following functions are added: virPCIDeviceGetIOMMUGroupList Gets a virPCIDeviceList with one virPCIDeviceList for each device in the same IOMMU group as the provided virPCIDevice (a copy of the original device object is included in the list. virPCIDeviceAddressIOMMUGroupIterate Calls the function @actor once for each device in the group that contains the given virPCIDeviceAddress. virPCIDeviceAddressGetIOMMUGroupAddresses Fills in a virPCIDeviceAddressPtr * with an array of virPCIDeviceAddress, one for each device in the iommu group of the provided virPCIDeviceAddress (including a copy of the original). virPCIDeviceAddressGetIOMMUGroupNum Returns the group number as an int (a valid group number will always be 0 or greater). If there is no iommu_group link in the device's directory (usually indicating that vfio isn't loaded), -2 will be returned. On any real error, -1 will be returned.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
