Hi Wei, I can't quite parse this. Is the problem that you had some virtio I/O in progress, you wrote "0" to /sys/.../sriov_numvfs, and the virtio I/O operation hangs? Is there any indication to the user, e.g., softlockup oops? More questions below.

I want to follow along in the code, but I need some hints. "queue_usage_counter" looks like it's supposed to be a symbol, but I can't find it. Where (which function) is the I/O dispatched and queue_usage_counter incremented? Where is queue_usage_counter decremented? Prior to this change pci_device_is_present(VF) returned "false" (because the VF Vendor ID is 0xffff); after the change it will return "true" (because it will look at the PF Vendor ID instead). Previously virtio_pci_remove() called virtio_break_device(). I guess that meant the virtio I/O operation will never be completed? But if we don't call virtio_break_device(), the virtio I/O operation *will* be completed? Bjorn
