Though they are the same thing, mixed use of them is uncomfortable.
"unsigned" is used a lot in old codes, this just tries to change the
ones in utils.
Commit 9a3ff01d7f (which was ACKed at
the end of January, but for some reason didn't get pushed until during
the 1.0.4 freeze) fixed the logic in virPCIGetVirtualFunctions().
Unfortunately, a typo in the fix (replacing VIR_REALLOC_N with
VIR_ALLOC_N during code movement) caused not only a memory leak, but
also resulted in most of the elements of the result array being
replaced with NULL. virNetDevGetVirtualFunctions() assumed (and I think
rightly so) that virPCIGetVirtualFunctions() wouldn't return any NULL
elements in the array, so it ended up segfaulting.
This was found when attempting to use a virtual network with an
auto-created pool of SRIOV VFs, e.g.:
<forward mode='hostdev' managed='yes'>
<pf dev='eth4'/>
</forward>
(the pool of PCI addresses is discovered by calling
virNetDevGetVirtualFunctions() on the PF dev).
virPCIGetVirtualFunctions returns 0 even if there is no "virtfn"
entry under the device sysfs path.
And virPCIGetVirtualFunctions returns -1 when it fails to get
the PCI config space of one VF, however, with keeping the
the VFs already detected.
That's why udevProcessPCI and gather_pci_cap use logic like:
if (!virPCIGetVirtualFunctions(syspath,
&data->pci_dev.virtual_functions,
&data->pci_dev.num_virtual_functions) ||
data->pci_dev.num_virtual_functions > 0)
data->pci_dev.flags |= VIR_NODE_DEV_CAP_FLAG_PCI_VIRTUAL_FUNCTION;
to tag the PCI device with "virtual_function" cap.
However, this results in a VF will aslo get "virtual_function" cap.
This patch fixes it by:
* Ignoring the VF which has failure of getting PCI config space
(given that the successfully detected VFs are kept , it makes
sense to not give up on the failure of one VF too) with a warning,
so virPCIGetVirtualFunctions will not return -1 except out of memory.
* Free the allocated *virtual_functions when out of memory
And thus the logic can be changed to:
/* Out of memory */
int ret = virPCIGetVirtualFunctions(syspath,
&data->pci_dev.virtual_functions,
&data->pci_dev.num_virtual_functions);
if (ret < 0 )
goto out;
if (data->pci_dev.num_virtual_functions > 0)
data->pci_dev.flags |= VIR_NODE_DEV_CAP_FLAG_PCI_VIRTUAL_FUNCTION;
To allow modifications to the lists to be synchronized, convert
virPCIDeviceList and virUSBDeviceList into virObjectLockable
classes. The locking, however, will not be self-contained. The
users of these classes will have to call virObjectLock/Unlock
in the critical regions.

Pass stub driver name directly to pciDettachDevice and pciReAttachDevice to fit
for different libvirt drivers. For example, qemu driver prefers pci-stub, but
Xen prefers pciback.
