Subject: [PATCH v3 00/15] Tidy up vfio_device life cycle
The idea is to let vfio core manage the vfio_device life cycle instead
of duplicating the logic cross drivers. Besides cleaner code in driver
side this also allows adding struct device to vfio_device as the first
step toward adding cdev uAPI in the future. Another benefit is that
user can now look at sysfs to decide whether a device is bound to
vfio [1], e.g.:
/sys/devices/pci0000\:6f/0000\:6f\:01.0/vfio-dev/vfio0
Though most drivers can fit the new model naturally:
- vfio_alloc_device() to allocate and initialize vfio_device
- vfio_put_device() to release vfio_device
- dev_ops->init() for driver private initialization
- dev_ops->release() for driver private cleanup
vfio-ccw is the only exception due to a life cycle mess that its private
structure mixes both parent and mdev info hence must be alloc/freed
outside of the life cycle of vfio device.
Per prior discussions this won't be fixed in short term by IBM folks [2].
Instead of waiting this series introduces a few tricks to move forward:
- vfio_init_device() to initialize a pre-allocated device structure;
- require *EVERY* driver to implement @release and free vfio_device
inside. Then vfio-ccw can use a completion mechanism to delay the
free to css driver;
The second trick is not a real burden to other drivers because they
all require a @release for private cleanup anyay. Later once the ccw
mess is fixed a simple cleanup can be done by moving free from @release
to vfio core.
Thanks
Kevin
