So I read this reproducer:


  memcpy((void*)0x200000000140, "sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:04.0/config\000",
         40);
  res = syscall(__NR_openat, /*fd=*/0xffffff9c, /*file=*/0x200000000140ul,
                /*flags=O_RDWR*/ 2, /*mode=*/0);
  if (res != -1)
    r[0] = res;
  //  pwrite64 arguments: [
  //    fd: fd (resource)
  //    buf: ptr[in, buffer] {
  //      buffer: {00 00} (length 0x2)
  //    }
  //    count: len = 0x2 (8 bytes)
  //    pos: intptr = 0x4 (8 bytes)
  //  ]
  memset((void*)0x200000000180, 0, 2);
  syscall(__NR_pwrite64, /*fd=*/r[0], /*buf=*/0x200000000180ul, /*count=*/2ul,
          /*pos=*/4ul);



So it writes 0 into pci command, effectively killing the device,
and then is unhappy that the driver prints warnings?
Who thought it's a good idea? Why?
