It is largely idempotent AFAIR. The pathological case is queues go away
between the two assigns, but that results in the worst case just
in an error code -- the previous assignment is still effective. Why are
you asking? When doing this next time we will start with a freshly
created mdev I guess.
Regarding unwind. Keeping a half configured mdev (errors happened) looks
like a bad idea to me. Currently we don't fail the start operation if
we can't configure a device. So I guess the in case of vfio_ap the
guest would just start with whatever we managed to get.
What about concurrent updates to the config?

This is a disruptive action for 'auto' at the moment. I'm not sure about
that, but if we want to have this disruptive, then we need to document
it as such.

If the mdev is not started stop has no effect. If there
is an mdev started, and in use by a VM destroying the
mdev is a disruptive operation.
I'm a bit concerned about this semantic. We have a case
where the change takes effect immediately in a disruptive
or not disruptive fashion, and then we have a case where
only the persistent configuration is changed. And then,
when the configuration are applied, it may only get partially
applied.
Tony is working on hotplug/unplug on vfio_ap_mdevs. I do
not see if that is also supposed to fit in here. Probably
not.

How about concurrency? I guess we could end up loosing distinct
updates without detecting it.

Basically we append or change but don't remove. So it is a
cumulative thing I suppose.
I'm not sure 'set-additional-config' is a good idea. For vfio_ap
I would hope for a tool that is more intelligent, and can help
with avoiding and managing conflicts.
