Yeah we don't care about races, so if the tlb flushing isn't perfect that's fine. Also if we glue this into the mmiotrace infrastructure, that already has all the fault handling. So on x86 I think we could even make it perfect (but that feels like overkill) and fully atomic. Plus the mmiotrace overhead (even if we don't capture anything) is probably a bit much even for testing in CI or somewhere like that. -Daniel > > Christian. > > > > > If you believe it's actually doable then it would be useful not only for > > simulating device > > unplugged situation with all MMIOs returning 0xff... but for actual > > handling of driver accesses > > to MMIO after device is gone and, we could then drop entirely this patch as > > there would be no need > > to guard against such accesses post device unplug. > > > > > > > > > > > > > But ugh ... > > > > > > > > > > > > Otoh validating an entire driver like amdgpu without such a trick > > > > > > against 0xff reads is practically impossible.
