[PATCH v2 2/2] vdpa: add driver_override support

From: Stefano Garzarella
Date: Fri Nov 26 2021 - 11:50:19 EST


`driver_override` allows to control which of the vDPA bus drivers
binds to a vDPA device.

If `driver_override` is not set, the previous behaviour is followed:
devices use the first vDPA bus driver loaded (unless auto binding
is disabled).

Tested on Fedora 34 with driverctl(8):
$ modprobe virtio-vdpa
$ modprobe vhost-vdpa
$ modprobe vdpa-sim-net

$ vdpa dev add mgmtdev vdpasim_net name dev1

# dev1 is attached to the first vDPA bus driver loaded
$ driverctl -b vdpa list-devices
dev1 virtio_vdpa

$ driverctl -b vdpa set-override dev1 vhost_vdpa

$ driverctl -b vdpa list-devices
dev1 vhost_vdpa [*]

Note: driverctl(8) integrates with udev so the binding is
preserved.

Writing a device name to this file will cause the driver to

+Date: November 2021
+Contact: virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+Description:
+ This file allows the driver for a device to be specified.
+ When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value
+ written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to
+ the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the
+ driver_override file (echo vhost-vdpa > driver_override) and may
+ be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override).
+ This returns the device to standard matching rules binding.
+ Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the
+ device from its current driver or make any attempt to
+ automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a
+ matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will
+ not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of
+ driver binding using a driver_override name such as "none".
+ Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is
+ no support for parsing delimiters.
