| |
2.6.39-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
This reverts ed78661f2614d3c9f69c23e280db3bafdabdf5bb as it assumes the saved PCI state will remain valid for the entire length of time that it is attached to a guest. This fails when userspace makes use of the pci-sysfs reset interface, which invalidates the saved device state, leaving nothing to be restored after the device is reset on de-assignment. This leaves the device in an unusable state.
3.0.0 will add an interface for KVM to save the PCI state in a buffer unaffected by other callers of pci_reset_function(), but the most appropriate stable fix seems to be reverting this change since the original assumption about the device saved state persisting is incorrect.
