Yep, that's essentially it. I assume we'd want to trickle this through
other interfaces and the hfi1 folks can look at whether they want to
drop their custom config save/restore in favor of using
pci_reset_function_locked(), which would do that for them.
pci_reset_bus() should also allow the caller to set a mask so vfio
doesn't worry about defaults changing in the core. Thanks,
The testing was successful.

I have tested the two new patches applied on top of 4.19-rc1 and they seem to
be working as well."
Before I post the code on the list, I want to make sure I capture your
request correctly.
You are asking for more APIs to have the mask feature. I can add
slot and bus reset options to pci_reset_bus().
If there are other functions that need mask feature, we can deal
with them later as I want to focus on the regression short term.
Though, it would be good to enumerate the functions with needed masks
to start the conversation.
Well, if __pci_reset_function_locked() has this option, would only make
sense that these would as well:
pci_probe_reset_function()
pci_reset_function()
pci_reset_function_locked()
pci_try_reset_function()
Then I'd like to see the same sort of caller specification added to
pci_reset_bus() so that vfio can specify whether it's expecting a sbr
or slot reset. Thanks,
OK. I can work on these. We can review and hopefully reach to a consensus.
I posted the bare minimum needed to bugfix this specific issue for the moment.
