We did a break-down among them: 1) ~150 LOC for vdev initialization 2) ~150 LOC for cfg space emulation 3) ~230 LOC for mmio r/w emulation 4) ~500 LOC for controlling the work queue (vidxd_do_command), triggered by write emulation of IDXD_CMD_OFFSET register 5) the remaining lines are all about vfio-mdev registration/callbacks, for reporting mmio/irq resource, eventfd, mmap, etc. 1/2/3) are pure device emulation, which counts for ~500 LOC. 4) needs be in the kernel regardless of which uAPI is used, because it talks to the physical work queue (enable, disable, drain, abort, reset, etc.) Then if just talking about ~500 LOC emulation code left in the kernel, is it still a big concern to you? 😊 Thanks Kevin
