Hi Yinghai,
   The third patch make pci_stop_dev call pci_disable_sriov(dev).
It looks asymmetrical, because pci_enable_sriov(dev, NR_VIRTFN) always
be called by device driver. Why not work around this in device driver like ixgbe?
I'm not familiar with SRIOV, so I'm just a bit puzzled.

Thanks!
Yijing.

------------------------------------------------------------
Some driver (like ixgbe) does not call pci_disable_sriov() if
sriov is enabled via /sys/.../sriov_numvfs setting.
ixgbe does allow driver for PF get detached, but still have VFs
around.

But how about PF get removed via /sys or pciehp finally?

During hot-remove, VF will still hold one ref to PF and it
prevent PF to be removed.
That make the next hot-add fails, as old PF dev struct is still around.

We need to add pci_disable_sriov() calling during stop PF .

Need this one for v3.11

-v2: Accoring to Bjorn, move that calling to pci_stop_dev.

Can you post these as a new thread with -v2 patches?

Why did you put pci_disable_sriov() inside the "if (dev->is_added)"
block?  Is it related to is_added?

ok, will repost them on top of pci/for-linus

yes, only have pci_enable_sriov when is_added is true.
driver is detached when device_del() is called, and at that time
pci_disable_sriov should be just called.
