Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 vfio 0/7] pds vfio driver

This is a first draft patchset for a new vendor specific VFIO driver for
use with the AMD/Pensando Distributed Services Card (DSC). This driver
(pds_vfio) is a client of the newly introduced pds_core driver.

Reference to the pds_core patchset:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221207004443.33779-1-shannon.nelson@amd.com/

AMD/Pensando already supports a NVMe VF device (1dd8:1006) in the
Distributed Services Card (DSC). This patchset adds the new pds_vfio
driver in order to support NVMe VF live migration.

This driver will use the pds_core device and auxiliary_bus as the VFIO
control path to the DSC. The pds_core device creates auxiliary_bus devices
for each live migratable VF. The devices are named by their feature plus
the VF PCI BDF so the auxiliary_bus driver implemented by pds_vfio can find
its related VF PCI driver instance. Once this auxiliary bus connection
is configured, the pds_vfio driver can send admin queue commands to the
device and receive events from pds_core.

An ASCII diagram of a VFIO instance looks something like this and can
be used with the VFIO subsystem to provide devices VFIO and live
migration support.

The pds_vfio driver is targeted to reside in drivers/vfio/pci/pds.
It makes use of and introduces new files in the common include/linux/pds
include directory.

Changes:
v2:
- Implement state transitions for VFIO_MIGRATION_P2P flag
- Improve auxiliary driver probe by returning EPROBE_DEFER
  when the PCI driver is not set up correctly
- Add pointer to docs in
  Documentation/networking/device_drivers/ethernet/index.rst

Brett Creeley (7):
  pds_vfio: Initial support for pds_vfio VFIO driver
  pds_vfio: Add support to register as PDS client
  pds_vfio: Add VFIO live migration support
  vfio: Commonize combine_ranges for use in other VFIO drivers
  pds_vfio: Add support for dirty page tracking
  pds_vfio: Add support for firmware recovery
  pds_vfio: Add documentation files
