AMD General The original intent of this function is to collect the real hardware PCIe state from the AMD GPU's internal upstream/downstream switch ports.
However, under QEMU/VFIO passthrough, the guest-visible PCIe topology and PCI config space is virtualized. QEMU/VFIO can intercept, emulate, or selectively forward PCI config accesses, so the upstream bridge information seen by the guest does not necessarily represent the real hardware topology or state. Therefore, in a VFIO guest this function no longer has practical meaning for retrieving real HW PCIe state. At most, it reads the virtual/emulated PCIe state exposed by QEMU/VFIO, which may not reflect the physical device (which depend on the implementation of QEMU/VFIO & kernel VFIO Driver source code) So, I suggest that it is better to hide these interfaces under PT or SRIOV mode.
