Hello Kernel Hackers, the following series enables PF-VF linking for architectures using the pdev->no_vf_scan flag (currently just s390). This includes kernel internal linking with pdev->physfn as well as creation of the relevant sysfs links. The former are required for example by libvirt to manage VFs. The series consists of two patches against the featuress branch of git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux.git - PCI/IOV: Introduce pci_iov_sysfs_link() function This patch factors the sysfs link creation out of pci_iov_add_virtfn() and into a new pci_iov_sysfs_link() function. On its own it also applies cleanly on v5.7-rc4. - s390/pci: create links between PFs and VFs This patch makes use of the pci_iov_sysfs_link() function introduced in the first patch to create the sysfs PF-VF links. It exploits recent work for multi-function support on s390 that gives us the real devfnto identify the parent PF of a given VF. Apart from these s390 specific support contained within arch/s390/ it also removes the fencing off of pci_iov_remove_virtfn() by the pdev->no_vf_scan flag making use of the common code path for clean VF removal. While this is common code s390 is currently the only case where pdev->no_vf_scan is true I can of course split this into a separate patch if requested but wanted to keep this together for the discussion.
