That sounds like a really bad idea to me.
Basically the suggestion is here that the PCI subsystem should silently
extend and shrink the VF BARs when the number of VFs change?
Why do you think it's a bad idea? Everything is under PCI subsystem
control and the driver in charge has to explicitly opt-in to this
behavior on a per-BAR basis.
And exactly that's a bad idea. The PCI subsystem shouldn't control
this, the driver should.
At least for some devices we have tons of interactions with ACPI and
EFI. Only the driver does know for example when platform drivers which
might be in the way for a resize have been unloaded.
From the past experience BAR resize should only be triggered by the
driver and never from the PCI subsystem while scanning the bus or
probing devices.
Bjorn has the last word on that but I would say that instead the driver
owning the PCIe device as hypervisor should resize the VF BARs to a desired
size and that in turn restricts the number of VFs you can enable.
Then the PCI subsystem would silently change the driver_max_VFs (or new
variable, as driver_max_VFs is under PF control, so it's either new var
or checking VF BAR size in pci_sriov_set_totalvfs).
Nope, the PCI subsystem should not magically adjust anything.
What should happen instead is that the driver would call
pci_enable_sriov() with the number of virtual functions to enable and
the PCI subsystem then validates that number and return -EINVAL or
-ENOSPC if it won't work.
It also means that we have to do the maths to calculate the new VF limit
in both PCI subsystem and the caller.
Well the point is that those calculations are different.
What the subsystem does is to validate if with the number of requested
virtual functions the necessary resources will fit into the allocate
space.
What the driver does previously is to either change the allocate space
or calculate the other way around and determine the maximum virtual
functions from the space available.
We can go this route as well - I just think it's cleaner to keep this
all under PCI subsystem control.
I think that would be much cleaner, especially the PCI subsystem
shouldn't adjust any values given from the driver or even more general
overrule decisions the driver made.
Instead proper error codes should be returned if some values don't
make sense or the subsystem isn't able to move around BARs currently
in use etc...

Christian.
I'll keep the current behavior in v3, but I'm open to changing it.
