Subject: [PATCH] s390/vfio-ap: fix sysfs status attribute for AP queue devices

The 'status' attribute for AP queue devices bound to the vfio_ap device
driver displays incorrect status when the mediated device is attached to a
guest, but the queue device is not passed through. In the current
implementation, the status displayed is 'in_use' which is not correct; it
should be 'assigned'. This can happen if one of the queue devices
associated with a given adapter is not bound to the vfio_ap device driver.
For example:

Queues listed in /sys/bus/ap/drivers/vfio_ap:
14.0005
14.0006
14.000d
16.0006
16.000d

Queues listed in /sys/devices/vfio_ap/matrix/$UUID/matrix
14.0005
14.0006
14.000d
16.0005
16.0006
16.000d

Queues listed in /sys/devices/vfio_ap/matrix/$UUID/guest_matrix
14.0005
14.0006
14.000d

The reason no queues for adapter 0x16 are listed in the guest_matrix is
because queue 16.0005 is not bound to the vfio_ap device driver, so no
queue associated with the adapter is passed through to the guest;
therefore, each queue device for adapter 0x16 should display 'assigned'
instead of 'in_use', because those queues are not in use by a guest, but
only assigned to the mediated device.

Let's check the AP configuration for the guest to determine whether a
queue device is passed through before displaying a status of 'in_use'.

PING
This patch is pretty straight forward, does anyone see a reason why this
shouldn't be integrated?

I'm not sure if there is documentation. I assume there is
no additional documentation except for the code and the
commit messages on what those actually mean. So there
is no way to cross-check and no need to update it.

I personally don't feel like having clarity on these states. In
use does not actually mean that the guest is actually using
it: the guest can happily ignore the queue. The unassigned
is pretty clear. What "assigned" vs "in use" is supposed
to express, not so much to me.

I don't think this fix qualifies for the stable process,
but it has been a while since I've looked at the corresponding
process documentation.

I can give you an
Acked-by: Harald Freudenberger <[email protected]>
for this. Your explanation sounds sane to me and fixes a wrong
display. However, I am not familiar with the code so, I can't tell
if that's correct.
Just a remark: How can it happen that one queue is not bound to the vfio
dd?
Didn't we actively remove the unbind possibility from the sysfs for
devices
assigned to the vfio dd?
