[Question] Any plan to support enable PCI SRIOV concurrently in kernel side?

["Zhoujian (jay)" <jianjay.zhou@huawei.com>]

Hi,

Enable SRIOV concurrently with many different PFs in userspace seems workable.
I'm trying to do it with 8 PFs(each one with 240+ VFs), but get some warnings,
here is the backtrace:

Warning 1:
---
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:30/0000:30:02.0/pci_bus/0000:32'
Call Trace:
 dump_stack+0x6f/0xab
 sysfs_warn_dup+0x56/0x70
 sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x80/0x90
 kobject_add_internal+0xa0/0x2b0
 kobject_add+0x71/0xd0
 device_add+0x126/0x630
 pci_add_new_bus+0x17c/0x4b0
 pci_iov_add_virtfn+0x336/0x390
 sriov_enable+0x26e/0x450
 virtio_pci_sriov_configure+0x61/0xc0 [virtio_pci]
---
The reason is that different VFs may create the same pci bus number
and try to add new bus concurrently in virtfn_add_bus.

Warning 2:
---
proc_dir_entry 'pci/33' already registered
WARNING: CPU: 71 PID: 893 at fs/proc/generic.c:360 proc_register+0xf8/0x130
Call Trace:

 pci_iov_add_virtfn+0x375/0x390
 sriov_enable+0x26e/0x450
 virtio_pci_sriov_configure+0x61/0xc0 [virtio_pci]
---
The reason is that different VFs may create '/proc/bus/pci/bus_number'
directory using the same bus number in pci_proc_attach_device concurrently.

Mutex lock can avoid potential conflict. With the patch below the warnings above
are no longer appear.

My question is that any plan to support enable PCI SRIOV concurrently in kernel side?

Thanks
