No it's not, FLR from hypervisor is just to notify guest the hw VF FLR is about to start or was already executed, but host will do FLR anyway without waiting for guest too long

It makes the code to crash ... how could it be a fix ?

I'm afraid the patch is NAK from me,  but it is welcome if the cleanup do not ruin the logic, Andry or jingwen can try it if needed.

Thanks

Hi Jingwen,

well what I mean is that we need to adjust the implementation in amdgpu to actually match the requirements.

Could be that the reset sequence is questionable in general, but I doubt so at least for now.

See the FLR request from the hypervisor is just another source of signaling the need for a reset, similar to each job timeout on each queue. Otherwise you have a race condition between the hypervisor and the scheduler.

Properly setting in_gpu_reset is indeed mandatory, but should happen at a central place and not in the SRIOV specific code.

In other words I strongly think that the current SRIOV reset implementation is severely broken and what Andrey is doing is actually fixing it.

Regards,
Christian.
