[RFC PATCH v2 0/5] Report vfio-ap configuration changes

[RFC PATCH v2 0/5] Report vfio-ap configuration changes

[Rorie Reyes]

Changelog:

v2:
- removed warnings that weren't needed
- added unregister function
- removed whitelines
- changed variable names for consistency
- removed rc variable and returning 1 or 0 outright
- reversed logics for if statements
- using g_free() instead of free()
- replaced hardcoded numeric values by defining them with #define
in the header 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch series creates and registers a handler that is called when
userspace is notified by the kernel that a guest's AP configuration has
changed. The handler in turn notifies the guest that its AP configuration
has changed. This allows the guest to immediately respond to AP
configuration changes rather than relying on polling or some other
inefficient mechanism for detecting config changes.

[RFC PATCH v2 1/5] linux-headers: NOTFORMERGE - placeholder uapi updates for AP config change

[Rorie Reyes]

This patch adds enumeration constant VFIO_AP_CFG_CHG_IRQ_INDEX to specify
an IRQ index for signaling that a change has been made to the guest's AP
configuration. This is a placeholder for QEMU patches that use this value
since it is a linux-headers update which includes changes that aren't
merged into the kernel. Linux-headers patches should be generated using
scripts/update-linux-headers.sh.

[RFC PATCH v2 2/5] hw/vfio/ap: notification handler for AP config changed event

[Rorie Reyes]

Register an event notifier handler to process AP configuration
change events by queuing the event and generating a CRW to let
the guest know its AP configuration has changed

[RFC PATCH v2 3/5] hw/vfio/ap: store object indicating AP config changed in a queue

[Rorie Reyes]

Creates an object indicating that an AP configuration change event
has been received and stores it in a queue. These objects will later
be used to store event information for an AP configuration change
when the CHSC instruction is intercepted.

Are the kernel changes planned for 6.14 ?

FYI, QEMU 10.0 hard freeze is scheduled for 2025-03-18 which is
approximately when 6.14-rc7 will be released.

Thanks,

C.

In patch 3/5, you move the css_generate_css_crws() function outside
of this if block and replace it with a return here. That is the right thing
to do, but you should do it here in this patch.

Vasily - Since you applied my kernel patches already ([RFC PATCH v2] 
s390/vfio-ap: Notify userspace that guest's AP config changed when mdev 
removed), would you be able to answer Cedric's

a question?

Cedric - I have some changes I need to make based on Tony's review 
comments from Friday, but I'll wait to post it once you get an answer 
for your question. Sorry I took a while to respond. I had to

make some changes for my kernel code this past month.

AFAICT, the changes were merged in the s390 sub-maintainer tree,
07d89045bffea30ef08b902c2441a3329e44f29d, and they haven't reached
Linux master yet. Seems a bit late for the 6.14 cycle now.

linux-headers in QEMU are in sync with version 6.14-rc3 and that
should the last update before QEMU 10.0 soft-freeze tomorrow.

Most likely, this series should now target the next cycles:
Linux 6.15 and QEMU 10.1. We have time.


Thanks,

C.

We are at v6.14-rc6. The changes are queued for the 6.15 merge window.

Thanks Cedric! I'll post the v3 patch from Tony's review
