mmiotrace can, but only for debug, and only on x86 platforms:

Should be feasible (but maybe not worth the effort) to extend
this to
<br>
support fake unplug.

<br>
Mhm, interesting idea you guys brought up here.
<br>
<br>
We don't need a page fault for this to work, all we need to do is
to insert dummy PTEs into the kernels page table at the place
where previously the MMIO mapping has been.

<p>But that exactly what Mathew from linux-mm says is not a trivial

It would, in theory, be
possible to reprogram the page tables used for vmalloc to point to your
magic page. I don't think we have such a mechanism today, and there are
lots of problems with things like TLB flushes. It's probably going to
be harder than you think.

If you believe it's actually doable then it would be useful not only for simulating device
unplugged situation with all MMIOs returning 0xff... but for actual handling of driver accesses
to MMIO after device is gone and, we could then drop entirely this patch as there would be no need
to guard against such accesses post device unplug.

Otoh validating an entire driver like amdgpu without such a

against 0xff reads is practically impossible. So maybe you
need to add

this as one of the tasks here?

Or I could just for validation purposes return ~0 from all reg
reads in the code
<br>
and ignore writes if drm_dev_unplugged, this could already
easily validate a big
<br>
portion of the code flow under such scenario.
<br>

Hm yeah if your really wrap them all, that should work too.
Since
<br>
iommappings have __iomem pointer type, as long as amdgpu is
sparse
<br>
warning free, should be doable to guarantee this.
<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Problem is that ~0 is not always a valid register value.
<br>
<br>
You would need to audit every register read that it doesn't use
the returned value blindly as index or similar. That is quite a
bit of work.
<br>
</blockquote>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>But ~0 is the value that will be returned for every read post
device unplug, regardless if it's valid or not, and we have to
cope with<br>
it then, no ?</p>
