[PATCH v3 1/2] xen-pciback: prepare for the split for stub and PV

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko
Date: Thu Sep 23 2021 - 05:53:52 EST


From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@xxxxxxxx>

Currently PCI backend implements multiple functionalities at a time.
To name a few:
1. It is used as a database for assignable PCI devices, e.g. xl
pci-assignable-{add|remove|list} manipulates that list. So, whenever
the toolstack needs to know which PCI devices can be passed through
it reads that from the relevant sysfs entries of the pciback.
2. It is used to hold the unbound PCI devices list, e.g. when passing
through a PCI device it needs to be unbound from the relevant device
driver and bound to pciback (strictly speaking it is not required
that the device is bound to pciback, but pciback is again used as a
database of the passed through PCI devices, so we can re-bind the
devices back to their original drivers when guest domain shuts down)
3. Device reset for the devices being passed through
4. Para-virtualized use-cases support

The para-virtualized part of the driver is not always needed as some
architectures, e.g. Arm or x86 PVH Dom0, are not using backend-frontend
model for PCI device passthrough. For such use-cases make the very
first step in splitting the xen-pciback driver into two parts: extended
PCI stub and PCI PV backend drivers. At the moment x86 platform will
continue using CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND for the fully featured backend
driver and new platforms may build a driver with limited functionality
(no PV) by enabling CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_STUB.

+ The PCI device stub driver provides limited version of the PCI
+ device backend driver without para-virtualized support for guests.

+ The "hide" parameter (only applicable if backend driver is compiled

+ If in doubt, say m.
