This series is meant to add support for SR-IOV on devices when the VFs are not managed by the kernel. Examples of recent patches attempting to do this include: virto - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10241225/ pci-stub - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10109935/ vfio - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10103353/ uio - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9974031/ Since this is quickly blowing up into a multi-driver problem it is probably best to implement this solution as generically as possible. This series is an attempt to do that. What we do with this patch set is provide a generic framework to enable SR-IOV in the case that the PF driver doesn't support managing the VFs itself. I based my patch set originally on the patch by Mark Rustad but there isn't much left after going through and cleaning out the bits that were no longer needed, and after incorporating the feedback from David Miller. At this point the only items to be fully reused was his patch description which is now present in patch 3 of the set. This solution is limited in scope to just adding support for devices that provide no functionality for SR-IOV other than allocating the VFs by calling pci_enable_sriov. Previous sets had included patches for VFIO, but for now I am dropping that as the scope of that work is larger then I think I can take on at this time. v2: Reduced scope back to just virtio_pci and vfio-pci Broke into 3 patch set from single patch Changed autoprobe behavior to always set when num_vfs is set non-zero v3: Updated Documentation to clarify when sriov_unmanaged_autoprobe is used Wrapped vfio_pci_sriov_configure to fix build errors w/o SR-IOV in kernel v4: Dropped vfio-pci patch Added ena and nvme to drivers now using pci_sriov_configure_unmanaged Dropped pci_disable_sriov call in virtio_pci to be consistent with ena v5: Dropped sriov_unmanaged_autoprobe and pci_sriov_conifgure_unmanaged Added new patch that enables pci_sriov_configure_simple Updated drivers to use pci_sriov_configure_simple Cc: Mark Rustad <mark.d.rustad@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Maximilian Heyne <mheyne@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Liang-Min Wang <liang-min.wang@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Alexander Duyck (4): pci: Add pci_sriov_configure_simple for PFs that don't manage VF resources virtio_pci: Add support for unmanaged SR-IOV on virtio_pci devices ena: Migrate over to unmanaged SR-IOV support nvme: Migrate over to unmanaged SR-IOV support drivers/net/ethernet/amazon/ena/ena_netdev.c | 30 ++---------------------- drivers/nvme/host/pci.c | 22 ++---------------- drivers/pci/iov.c | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/virtio/virtio_pci_common.c | 3 ++ include/linux/pci.h | 1 + 5 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 46 deletions(-) --
