[PATCH 00/17] vfio/pci: Remove duplicate code and logic from VFIO PCI interrupt management

From: Reinette Chatre
Date: Thu Feb 01 2024 - 23:57:38 EST


Hi Everybody,

Duplicate VFIO PCI interrupt management code and logic can be found
in two areas:
1) the VFIO PCI core (vfio_pci_core.c) directly accesses the
VFIO PCI interrupt lock and data to duplicate actions available
via the VFIO PCI interrupt management code (vfio_pci_intrs.c), and
2) the INTx and MSI/MSI-X interrupt management code within
vfio_pci_intrs.c have duplicate logic.

This series addresses (1) and (2) by first containing VFIO PCI interrupt
management within the VFIO PCI interrupt management code found in
vfio_pci_intrs.c and then refactoring the VFIO PCI interrupt management
code (vfio_pci_intrs.c) to share common logic between INTx, MSI, and
MSI-X interrupt management.

Bulk of the changes result in the same actions as before this series.
Two functional changes to highlight:
a) "vfio/pci: Consistently acquire mutex for interrupt management"
changes vfio_pci_core_disable()->vfio_pci_set_irqs_ioctl() to be
called with the igate mutex held.
b) "vfio/pci: Preserve per-interrupt contexts" changes MSI/MSI-x
interrupt management to preserve per-interrupt contexts across interrupt
allocate/free.

This work was inspired by (and inherits a few patches from) the IMS [1]
enabling work but this work is submitted (and expected to be considered)
independent from IMS.

Any feedback will be appreciated.
