Do the other bus types have a flag analogous to
PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE? If we're doing something similar to
other bus types, it'd be nice if the approach were similar.
They could, this series doesn't attempt it. I expect the approach to
be similar as driver_override was copied from PCI to other
busses. When this is completed I hope to take a look at it.
I think this would make more sense as two patches:
- Add a "PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE" flag. This is not VFIO-specific,
since nothing in PCI depends on the VFIO-ness of drivers that use
the flag. The only point here is that driver id_table entries
with this flag only match when driver_override matches the driver.
This would require using two flags, one to indicate the above to the
PCI code and another to indicate the vfio_pci string to
file2alias. This doesn't seem justified at this point, IMHO.
I don't think it requires two flags. do_pci_entry() has:
if (flags & PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE)
strcpy(alias, "vfio_pci:");
I'm just proposing a rename:
s/PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE/PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE/
- Update file2alias.c to export the flags and the "vfio_pci:" alias.
This seems to be the only place where VFIO comes into play, and
putting it in a separate patch will make it much smaller and it
will be clear how it could be extended for other buses.
Well, I don't want to see a flag called PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE mapped
to the string "vfio_pci", that is just really confusing.
Hahaha, I see, that's fair :) It confused me for a long time why you
wanted "VFIO" in the flag name because from the kernel's point of
view, the flag is not related to any VFIO-ness. It's only related to
a special variety of driver_override, and VFIO happens to be one user
of it.
In my original patch I used
#define PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE
and in the pci core code I used PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE in the "if" clause.
So we can maybe do that and leave the option to future update of the define
without changing the core code.
In the future we can have something like:
#define PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE (PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE |
PCI_ID_F_MY_BUS_DRIVER_OVERRIDE)
The file2alias.c still have to use the exact PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE
flag to add "vfio_" prefix.
Is that better ?
I don't think it's worth having two separate #defines. If we need
more in the future, we can add them when we need them.
I meant 1 #define and 1 enum:
enum {
PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE = 1 << 0,
};
#define PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE
Basically the same thing. Doesn't seem worthwhile to me to have both.
When reading the code, it's not at all obvious why you would define a
new name for PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE.
because we need the "vfio_" prefix in the alias.
And the match can use PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE that in the future cab be
(#define PCI_ID_DRIVER_OVERRIDE (PCI_ID_F_VFIO_DRIVER_OVERRIDE |
PCI_ID_F_SOME_OTHER_ALIAS_DRIVER_OVERRIDE)
Read this again:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210813174459.GA2594783@bjorn-Precision-5520
That gives you a "vfio_" prefix without the unnecessary VFIO
connection in pci_match_device.
I see.
So I guess the following code should be fine:
static const struct pci_device_id *pci_match_device(struct pci_driver *drv,
struct pci_dev *dev)
{
struct pci_dynid *dynid;
const struct pci_device_id *found_id = NULL, *ids;
/* When driver_override is set, only bind to the matching driver */
if (dev->driver_override && strcmp(dev->driver_override, drv->name))
return NULL;
/* Look at the dynamic ids first, before the static ones */
spin_lock(&drv->dynids.lock);
list_for_each_entry(dynid, &drv->dynids.list, node) {
if (pci_match_one_device(&dynid->id, dev)) {
found_id = &dynid->id;
break;
}
}
spin_unlock(&drv->dynids.lock);
if (found_id)
return found_id;
for (ids = drv->id_table; (found_id = pci_match_id(ids, dev));
ids = found_id + 1) {
/*
* The match table is split based on driver_override.
*/
if (!found_id->override_only || dev->driver_override)
return found_id;
}
/*
* if no static match, driver_override will always match, send a dummy
* id.
*/
if (dev->driver_override)
return &pci_device_id_any;
return NULL;
}
