Hi folks, I was trying to understand if we have a way to specify which vDPA bus driver (e.g. vhost-vdpa, virtio-vdpa) a device should use. IIUC we don't have it, and the first registered driver is used when a new device is registered. I was thinking if it makes sense to extend the management API to specify which bus driver to use for a device. A use case could be for example a single host handling VMs and bare-metal containers, so we would have both virtio-vdpa and vhost-vdpa loaded and we want to attach some devices to VMs through vhost-vdpa and others to containers through virtio-vdpa. What do you think? I can prepare an RFC with some code, the idea is to use the .match callback of "struct bus_type" to use a driver instead of the other, and extend netlink API to specify the vDPA bus driver name to use.
