This change is fine for hv_irq_retarget_interrupt(), it doesn't help for the
new IOMMU driver because pci-hyperv.c can (and often is) built as a module.
The new Hyper-V IOMMU driver in this patch series is built-in, and so it can't
use this symbol in that case -- you'll get a link error on vmlinux when building
the kernel. Requiring pci-hyperv.c to *not* be built as a module would also
require that the VMBus driver not be built as a module, so I don't think that's
the right solution.
This is a messy problem. The new IOMMU driver needs to start with a generic
"struct device" for the PCI device, and somehow find the corresponding VMBus
PCI pass-thru device from which it can get the VMBus instance ID. I'm thinking
about ways to do this that don't depend on code and data structures that are
private to the pci-hyperv.c driver, and will follow-up if I have a good
suggestion.
I was wondering if this "logical device id" is actually parsed by the
hypervisor,
or whether it is just a unique ID that is opaque to the hypervisor. From the
usage in the hypercalls in pci-hyperv.c and this new IOMMU driver, it appears
to be the former. Evidently the hypervisor is taking this logical device ID and
and matching against bytes 4 thru 7 of the instance GUIDs of PCI pass-thru
devices offered to the guest, so as to identify a particular PCI pass-thru
device.
If that's the case, then Linux doesn't have the option of choosing some other
unique ID that is easier to generate and access.
There's a uniqueness issue with this kind of logical device ID that has been
around for years, but I had never thought about before. In hv_pci_probe()
instance GUID bytes 4 and 5 are used to generate the PCI domain number for
the "fake" PCI bus that the PCI pass-thru device resides on. The issue is the
lack of guaranteed uniqueness of bytes 4 and 5, so there's code to deal with
a collision. (The full GUID is unique, but not necessarily some subset of the
GUID.) It seems like the same kind of uniqueness issue could occur here. Does
the Hyper-V host provide any guarantees about the uniqueness of bytes 4 thru
7 as a unit, and if not, what happens if there is a collision? Again, this
uniqueness issue has existed for years, so it's not new to this patch set, but
with new uses of the logical device ID, it seems relevant to consider.
