[PATCH v6 24/27] vfio: selftests: Test preserving noiommu devices in vfio_pci_liveupdate_uapi_test

From: Vipin Sharma

Date: Mon Nov 02 2026 - 11:53:06 EST


Add the iommufd_noiommu fixture variant to vfio_pci_liveupdate_uapi_test
and detect at startup whether the target device is bound to vfio-pci in
noiommu mode so that variants not matching the device cleanly skip, in
addition to skipping iommufd variants when probing
luo_session_preserve_fd() in FIXTURE_SETUP reports -ENOENT (e.g. on an
SR-IOV VF or when CONFIG_VFIO_PCI_LIVEUPDATE=n).

When the device is in noiommu mode, verify that preserving its bound
VFIO cdev FD succeeds, and add tests verifying that:
- preserving an unbound second cdev FD fails with -ENOENT without
affecting the bound FD (preserve_unbound_fd_fails),
- preserving a cdev FD that was never bound fails with -ENOENT
(preserve_never_bound_fails), and
- closing the Live Update session unpreserves the device so that it can
be preserved again in a new session (preserve_after_unpreserve).
