Not sure this second flag should be AER specific or if it's even needed,
see below for more comments on this.

I'm having second thoughts on this, see further below.

Perhaps we could incorporate the index test above this too?

switch (info.index) {
case VFIO_PCI_INTX_IRQ_INDEX: ... VFIO_PCI_MSIX_IRQ_INDEX:
	break;
case VFIO_PCI_ERR_IRQ_INDEX:
	if (pci_is_pcie(vdev->pdev))
		break;
default:
	return -EINVAL;
}

This is more similar to how I've re-written the same for the proposed
VGA/legacy I/O support.

This is actually AER specific, right?  So perhaps it should be
vfio_pci_aer_err_detected?

Also, please follow existing whitespace usage throughout, tabs followed
by spaces to align function parameter wrap.

Rename to vfio_pci_set_err_trigger?  The other functions mostly only
support eventfd too.

It would clean up the indentation to have this be:

        if (!supported stuff)
        	return -EINVAL;
        
        do stuff

Testing the index seems overly paranoid here given the caller.  The
caller is also already testing pci_is_pcie.

Why not support DATA_NONE and DATA_BOOL?  It would be useful loopback
testing for userspace to be able to trigger an AER notification.

                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This part of the vfio spec has been causing me trouble.  We discussed it
a bit offline, but I'd appreciate any feedback from you or the broader
community.  num_foo indicates a count, however the comment clearly
states this is a max index.  With the VGA patches I've been playing with
using them as a count where userspace would probe indexes until it finds
num_foo implemented (ie. INFO_IRQ/REGION returns >=0).  I guess the
original intention was was to probe up to num_foo-1 and unavailable
indexes return <0.  Looking at it again, this seems like the more
deterministic approach.  For instance, if we add LEGACY_IOPORT and
LEGACY_MMIO regions at index 8 & 9, then ERR region at index 10, it's
easier for userspace to know to stop searching at index 10 instead of
probing indexes it may not understand trying to find the full count.
Does that sound right?

So Vijay, please don't shot me for changing my mind, but I'm inclined to
think you were probably right that DEVICE_INFO should just return
num_irqs = VFIO_PCI_NUM_IRQS regardless of whether ERR_IRQ_INDEX is
supported.  However IRQ_INFO should still return <0 if the device is not
pcie.  It seems like this also means that we don't need flags indicating
which indexes are present as that duplicates simply looking for them.

Which flags do we actually need then?  Should the AER flag be a device
flag or is supporting AER error reporting a feature of
VFIO_PCI_ERR_IRQ_INDEX and should therefore be reported as a flag there?
So far REGION_INFO and IRQ_INFO flags only report capabilities of the
item and not it's purpose, but so far all the regions and irqs have very
fixed purposes.

I'm inclined to think that a LEGACY_IOPORT region reporting that it
supports VGA IOPORT space 3b0 and 3c0 makes more sense than a general
device VGA flag and inferring 3b0 & 3c0 based on the existence of a
LEGACY_IOPORT region.

If we put flags on INFO_REGION and INFO_IRQ, where do they go?  We've
got a u32 on each for flags.  We could split that and define bits >=16
are for type specific flags and <16 are generic.  We could also define a
generic flag indicating a type specific flag field is present.
region_info already has a reserved u32 for alignment that could fill
this roll, irq_info would need to add a field.  Perhaps something like:

We'd then have something like

#define VFIO_PCI_ERR_IRQ_TYPE_AER	(1 << 0)

and

#define VFIO_PCI_LEGACY_IOPORT_REGION_TYPE_VGA_3b0	(1 << 0)
#define VFIO_PCI_LEGACY_IOPORT_REGION_TYPE_VGA_3c0	(1 << 1)
#define VFIO_PCI_LEGACY_MMIO_REGION_TYPE_VGA_a0000	(1 << 0)

#define VFIO_PCI_ERR_REGION_TYPE_AER	(1 << 0)

What do you think?  It would be useful to prototype these with both AER
and VGA before committing.  Thanks,

Alex

Hmm, maybe IRQs don't need a type_flag.  For VGA we're exposing a region
and describing implemented sections within the region.  For IRQs, we
have practically a limitless space.  Perhaps that means this IRQ should
just be PCI_AER_EVENT_IRQ and if ever we need a different error
reporting IRQ we'll add a new index.  This way we don't have to add a
new field to irq_info and try to unnecessarily generalize a single
index.

I'll need to think about VGA though, we have the same (practically)
limitless index range there as well, but in the kernel side
implementation we used fixed sized segments into the device fd to know
which region is being accessed.  This isn't visible to userspace, so
we're free to change it.  If we did that, we might expose the specific
regions as separate indexes rather than try to generalize them into
reusable "legacy" ranges.  Again, comments welcome.  Thanks,

Alex

Makes things simpler. I will be taking out the VFIO_DEVICE_FLAGS_PCI_AER* flags altogether and just have the VFIO_PCI_ERR_IRQ_INDEX. When we want to add error reporting we can add a VFIO_PCI_ERR_REGION_INDEX.
