Thanks for your reminding.
This method will pass sci interrupt and straightly invoke
power_off_php_devfn function. It solves two problems:
1. Detach VGA passthrough device from HVM-1
2. Assign VGA passthrough device to a new HVM-2 during its
creating process
The limit of this method is that we cannot assign VGA dev back to HVM-1.
I did some research and tried to find the reason.
When unregistering a real device at power_off_php_devfn function, all
the mmio/pio maps and irqs related to the dev are destroyed. The
output of Xen is as below:
Xm pci-detach 00:00:02.0
(XEN) domctl.c:1001:d0 memory_map:remove: gfn=f1000 mfn=fe800 nr_mfns=400
(XEN) domctl.c:1001:d0 memory_map:remove: gfn=e0000 mfn=d0000 nr_mfns=10000
(XEN) domctl.c:1071:d0 ioport_map:remove f_gport=c2d0 f_mport=ec90 np=8
(XEN) domctl.c:1071:d0 ioport_map:remove f_gport=3b0 f_mport=3b0 np=c
(XEN) domctl.c:1071:d0 ioport_map:remove f_gport=3c0 f_mport=3c0 np=20
(XEN) domctl.c:1001:d0 memory_map:remove: gfn=a0 mfn=a0 nr_mfns=20
On the contrary, if we register a new VGA device using
power_on_php_devfn function, the output of Xen is:
Xm pci-attach 00:00:02.0
(XEN) domctl.c:1047:d0 ioport_map:add f_gport=3b0 f_mport=3b0 np=c
(XEN) domctl.c:1047:d0 ioport_map:add f_gport=3c0 f_mport=3c0 np=20
(XEN) domctl.c:991:d0 memory_map:add: gfn=a0 mfn=a0 nr_mfns=20
In conclusion, part of VGA initial work has done during video BIOS
staring. Only invoking power_on_php_devfn function cannot rebuild full
context of VGA dev.
I also trace power_off_php_devfn function, and find that the screen
will be shutdown as long as invoking pci_hide_device. Could anybody
know why? Maybe we can implement pci_unhide_device function to switch
passthrough dev between HVM domains.
Thanks & Regards
