[PATCH 0/5] RFC: VFIO CCW cleanup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Connie, and all,

I come back on the consolidation of the VFIO CCW driver,
this time by making smaller steps.
Here a first proposal, as RFC, therefore I only CC to
the linux-s390 list.

The first patch of this serie is essentially cosmetic
to clarify the code.

The second patch is a bug correction.

The last three patches clarify the linux device state changes.

Currently the VFIO CCW driver may be used while it is
not completely initialized or not dedicated to a guest.
- Let's consolidate this by moving state change and initialization
  inside the mediated device open callback.
- quiesce the device when the mediated device is released.
- refuse to remove a mediated device when it is in use.
- do not change the linux state on subchannel events.

Regards,

Pierre
