Subject: [PATCH mlx5-next 2/7] vfio: Add an API to check migration state
transition validity

From: Yishai Hadas <yishaih@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add an API in the core layer to check migration state transition validity
as part of a migration flow.

The valid transitions follow the expected usage as described in
uapi/vfio.h and triggered by QEMU.

This ensures that all migration implementations follow a consistent
migration state machine.

Do we need to allow _RESUMING state here or not? As per the "State transitions"
section from uapi/linux/vfio.h,
It looks like we missed this state transition.

Thanks

I'm not sure this state transition is valid.

Kirti, When we would like to move from RUNNING to RESUMING ?

Sameerali, can you please re-test and update if you see this transition ?



" * 4. To start the resuming phase, the device state should be transitioned from
* the _RUNNING to the _RESUMING state."

IIRC, I have seen that transition happening on the destination dev while testing the
HiSilicon ACC dev migration.

Thanks,
Shameer
