When support for the pcie-root and dmi-to-pci-bridge buses on a Q35
machinetype was added, I was concerned that even though qemu at the
time allowed plugging a PCI device into a PCIe port, that it might not
be supported in the future. To prevent painful backtracking in the
possible future where this happened, I disallowed such connections
except in a few specific cases requested by qemu developers (indicated
in the code with the flag VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_EITHER_IF_CONFIG).
Now that a couple years have passed, there is a clear message from
qemu that there is no danger in allowing PCI devices to be plugged
into PCIe ports. This patch eliminates
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_EITHER_IF_CONFIG and changes the code to always
allow PCI->PCIe or PCIe->PCI connection *when the PCI address is
specified in the config. (For newly added devices that haven't yet
been given a PCI address, the auto-placement still prefers using the
correct type of bus).
Create a sorted array of virtio-serial controllers.
Each of the elements contains the controller index
and a bitmap of available ports.
Buses are not tracked, because they aren't supported by QEMU.
Move sharable PCI handling functions to domain_addr.[ch], and
change theirs prefix from 'qemu' to 'vir':
- virDomainPCIAddressAsString;
- virDomainPCIAddressBusSetModel;
- virDomainPCIAddressEnsureAddr;
- virDomainPCIAddressFlagsCompatible;
- virDomainPCIAddressGetNextSlot;
- virDomainPCIAddressReleaseSlot;
- virDomainPCIAddressReserveAddr;
- virDomainPCIAddressReserveNextSlot;
- virDomainPCIAddressReserveSlot;
- virDomainPCIAddressSetFree;
- virDomainPCIAddressSetGrow;
- virDomainPCIAddressSlotInUse;
- virDomainPCIAddressValidate;
The only change here is function names, the implementation itself
stays untouched.
Extract common allocation code from DomainPCIAddressSetCreate
into virDomainPCIAddressSetAlloc.
Introduce new files (domain_addr.[ch]) to provide
an API for domain device handling that could be
shared across the drivers.
A list of data types were extracted and moved there:
qemuDomainPCIAddressBus -> virDomainPCIAddressBus
qemuDomainPCIAddressBusPtr -> virDomainPCIAddressBusPtr
_qemuDomainPCIAddressSet -> virDomainPCIAddressSet
qemuDomainPCIAddressSetPtr -> virDomainPCIAddressSetPtr
qemuDomainPCIConnectFlags -> virDomainPCIConnectFlags
Also, move the related definitions and macros.
