I don't quite get this remark, isn't not supporting PRI on VFs kind of
useless? What is the story here?
This remark is trying to explain why attaching an iopf-capable hwpt to a
VF is not supported for now. The PCI sepc (section 10.4.2.1) states that
a response failure will disable the PRI on the function. But for PF/VF
case, the PRI is a shared resource, therefore a response failure on a VF
might cause iopf on other VFs to malfunction. So, we start from simple
by not allowing it.
You are talking about IOMMU_PAGE_RESP_FAILURE ?

But this is bad already, something like SVA could trigger
IOMMU_PAGE_RESP_FAILURE on a VF without iommufd today. Due to memory
allocation failure in iommu_report_device_fault()

And then we pass in code from userspace and blindly cast it to
enum iommu_page_response_code ?

Probably we should just only support IOMMU_PAGE_RESP_SUCCESS/INVALID
from userspace and block FAILURE entirely. Probably the VMM should
emulate FAILURE by disabling PRI on by changing to a non PRI domain.

And this subtle uABI leak needs a fix:

iopf_group_response(group, response.code);

response.code and enum iommu_page_response_code are different
enums, and there is no range check. Need a static assert at least and
a range check. Send a followup patch please

Yes, sure.
