[RFC PATCH 0/4] fix secondary bus reset with active devices logic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The current logic can allow libvirt to issue a secondary bus reset
despite the host having devices on the same bus as a device that's being
assigned to a guest.  The following patches refactor the code a little
and then update the secondary bus reset logic to properly deal with
active devices.  This has been lightly tested, testing is still incomplete,
hence the RFC to get any style comments out of the way once testing
verifies this is working as expected.

The following scenarios have been successfully tested:

 - Do not issue a secondary bus reset:
   - start guest w/ domain conf including hostdev that shares bus w/
     devices owned by host
   - use attach-device to dynamically add hostdev to guest, hostdev
     shares bus w/ devices owned by host
   - attempt to node-reset a device assigned to guest
  
  - Issue a secondary bus reset:
    - start guest w/ domain conf including all devices on bus[1]
    - use attach-device to dynamically add hostdev to guest, hostdev
      does not share bus with other devices

Not yet tested:
  - Issue a secondary bus reset:
     - when shutting down domain
     - when detaching device from domain

[1] guest did not succesfully start w/ these devices, unclear if this
patch series is implicated.

Chris Wright (4):
  qemuGetPciHostDeviceList take hostdev list directly
  Add helpers qemuPrepareHostdevPCIDevices and qemuDomainReAttachHostdevDevices
  qemudDomainAttachHostPciDevice refactor to use new helpers
  pciResetDevice: use inactive devices to determine safe reset
