The motivation for this is to let the underlay driver be aware that
reset was done and set its internal state accordingly.
I think the intention of the uAPI here is that the migration error
state is exited specifically via the reset ioctl.  Maybe that should be
made more clear, but variant drivers can already wrap the core ioctl
for the purpose of determining that mechanism of reset has occurred.
It is not just recovering the error state.

Any transition to reset changes the firmware state. Eg if userspace
uses one of the other emulation paths to trigger the reset after
putting the device off running then the driver state and FW state
become desynchronized.

So all the reset paths need to be synchronized some how, either
blocked while in non-running states or aligning the SW state with the
new post-reset FW state.
This only catches the two flavors of FLR and the RESET ioctl itself, so
we've got gaps relative to "all the reset paths" anyway.  I'm also
concerned about adding arbitrary callbacks for every case that it gets
too cumbersome to write a wrapper for the existing callbacks.

However, why is this a vfio thing when we have the
pci_error_handlers.reset_done callback.  At best this ought to be
redundant to that.  Thanks,

Alex

Alex,

How about the below patch instead ?

This will centralize the 'reset_done' notifications for drivers to one place
(i.e. pci_error_handlers.reset_done)  and may close the gap that you pointed
on.

I just followed the logic in vfio_pci_aer_err_detected() from usage and
locking point of view.

Do we really need to take the &vdev->igate mutex as was done there ?

The next patch from the series in mlx5 will stay as of in V1, it may just
set its ops and be called upon PCI 'reset_done'.

Do not add new vfio_device_get_from_dev() calls, this should extract
it from the pci_get_drvdata.

Most likely mlx5vf should just implement a pci_error_handlers struct
and install vfio_pci_aer_err_detected in it.

Jason

This can work as well.

It may cleanup the need to set an extra ops on vfio_pci_core_device, the reset will go directly to the mlx5 driver.

I plan to follow that in coming V2.
