It says fixing the problem by setting the state to _ERROR for the DSC path and to _RUNNING for the FLR path. But looks it's already such case with old code: pds_vfio_recovery() pds_vfio->deferred_reset = true; pds_vfio->deferred_reset_state = VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_ERROR; pds_vfio_reset() pds_vfio->deferred_reset = true; pds_vfio->deferred_reset_state = VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING; pds_vfio_state_mutex_unlock() if (pds_vfio->deferred_reset) { ... pds_vfio->state = pds_vfio->deferred_reset_state; ... } it's same as what this patch does: pds_vfio_recovery() pds_vfio->deferred_reset_type = PDS_VFIO_DEVICE_RESET; pds_vfio_reset() pds_vfio->deferred_reset_state = PDS_VFIO_HOST_RESET; pds_vfio_state_mutex_unlock() if (pds_vfio->deferred_reset) { ... if (pds_vfio->deferred_reset_type == PDS_VFIO_HOST_RESET) pds_vfio->state = VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING; else pds_vfio->state = VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_ERROR; ... } looks the actual functional difference is from below change: > @@ -32,13 +32,14 @@ void pds_vfio_state_mutex_unlock(struct > pds_vfio_pci_device *pds_vfio) > mutex_lock(&pds_vfio->reset_mutex); > if (pds_vfio->deferred_reset) { > pds_vfio->deferred_reset = false; > - if (pds_vfio->state == VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_ERROR) { > - pds_vfio_put_restore_file(pds_vfio); > - pds_vfio_put_save_file(pds_vfio); > + pds_vfio_put_restore_file(pds_vfio); > + pds_vfio_put_save_file(pds_vfio); above two are changed from conditional to always. > + if (pds_vfio->deferred_reset_type == PDS_VFIO_HOST_RESET) > { > + pds_vfio->state = VFIO_DEVICE_STATE_RUNNING; > + } else { > pds_vfio_dirty_disable(pds_vfio, false); and this is now only for the DSC path. need a better explanation here.
