Merge branch 'pci/virtualization' into next
* pci/virtualization:
ixgbe: Use pcie_flr() instead of duplicating it
IB/hfi1: Use pcie_flr() instead of duplicating it
PCI: Call pcie_flr() from reset_chelsio_generic_dev()
PCI: Call pcie_flr() from reset_intel_82599_sfp_virtfn()
PCI: Export pcie_flr()
PCI: Add sysfs sriov_drivers_autoprobe to control VF driver binding
PCI: Avoid FLR for Intel 82579 NICs

The value comes from device config space. The file is read only. + +What: /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_drivers_autoprobe +Date: April 2017 +Contact: Bodong Wang<bodong@mellanox.com> +Description: + This file is associated with the PF of a device that + supports SR-IOV. It determines whether newly-enabled VFs + are immediately bound to a driver. It initially contains + 1, which means the kernel automatically binds VFs to a + compatible driver immediately after they are enabled. If + an application writes 0 to the file before enabling VFs, + the kernel will not bind VFs to a driver. + + A typical use case is to write 0 to this file, then enable + VFs, then assign the newly-created VFs to virtual machines. + Note that changing this file does not affect already- + enabled VFs. In this scenario, the user must first disable + the VFs, write 0 to sriov_drivers_autoprobe, then re-enable + the VFs. + + This is similar to /sys/bus/pci/drivers_autoprobe, but + affects only the VFs associated with a specific PF. |
