From: Xu Yilun <yilun.xu@intel.com>

DFL ports are registered as platform devices in PF mode. The port device
should be removed from the host when the user wants to configure the
port as a VF and pass through to a virtual machine. The FME device
ioctls DFL_FPGA_FME_PORT_RELEASE/ASSIGN are designed for this purpose.

In the previous implementation, the port platform device is not completely
destroyed on port release: it is removed from the system by
platform_device_del(), but the platform device instance is retained.
When the port assign ioctl is called, the platform device is added back by
platform_device_add(), which conflicts with this comment of device_add():
"Do not call this routine more than once for any device structure", and
will cause a kernel warning at runtime.

This patch tries to completely unregister the port platform device on
release and registers a new one on assign. But the main work is to remove
the dependency on struct dfl_feature_platform_data for many internal DFL
APIs. This structure holds many DFL enumeration infos for feature devices.
Many DFL APIs are expected to work with these info even when the port
platform device is unregistered. But with the change the platform_data will
be freed in this case. So this patch introduces a new structure
dfl_feature_dev_data for these APIs, which acts similarly to the previous
dfl_feature_platform_data. The dfl_feature_platform_data then only needs a
pointer to dfl_feature_dev_data to make the feature device driver work.

My quick idea is we go with these steps:
1. refactor struct dfl_feature_platform_data then replace all dev/pdev
   arguments with pdata when necessary.
2. factor out fdata from pdata, add fdata helpers.
3. massive pdata->fdata replacement.
4. delete all unused pdata helpers.

Please check if it is possible.

Thanks,
Yilun

Thank you for the comprehensive review.

Could you outline how far the refactoring should go? The main changes
are introduced with the destruction of the platform device on port
release. If the refactoring retains the platform device but adds all
the new members to pdata, I find that this patch would introduce non-
trivial intermediate code that is then deleted in a subsequent patch.

The (roughly) reverse order seems to produce the smallest patch set:

1. Replace function argument `struct device *dev` with `struct
dfl_feature_platform_data *pdata` as needed.
2. #define dfl_feature_dev_data dfl_feature_platform_data and massive
pdata -> fdata replacement.
3. Remove #define dfl_feature_dev_data, factor out dfl_feature_dev_data
from dfl_feature_platform_data, and destroy platform device on release.

Thanks,
Peter

Yes, exactly. And the goal is to make the change in a standalone patch
so that everyone can find it, rather than bury in other massive
replacements.

That would not be a problem, as long as they clearly get explained, and
in one patch series. Sometimes we need intermediate code to ensure a
patch for one change, which makes people easy to read.

I don't think 'smallest' is the major concern, but it's fine if you
firstly addressed other concerns. I cannot actually tell if it is
better until the code is seen. But to emphasize on, the core change is
splited out, the massive replacement patches are just replacements so
they can be easily overviewed and skipped.

Thank you for the guidance. I have restructured the series to move the
massive replacements into two patches, "fpga: dfl: pass feature
platform data instead of device as argument" and "fpga: dfl: refactor
functions to take/return feature device data". The other patches
address auxiliary, functional and non-functional concerns, such that
the final patch "fpga: dfl: fix kernel warning on port release/assign
for SRIOV" is now as small as feasible and focuses on the core change.

Thanks,
Peter
