[PATCH V3 08/10] vfio:selftest: Handle VFIO noiommu cdev
From: Jacob Pan
Date: Fri Apr 03 2026 - 01:13:30 EST
With unsafe DMA noiommu mode, the vfio devices are prefixed with
noiommu-, e.g.
/dev/vfio/
|-- devices
| `-- noiommu-vfio0
|-- noiommu-0
`-- vfio
Let vfio tests, such as luo kexec test, accommodate the noiommu device
files.
