Hi Joerg,

Do you see a real deadlock or only the lockdep warning? In the code it
looks like virtfn_add() takes the sriov->lock of the physical device
while pci_enable_ats() (when called from there) takes the sriov->lock of
the virtual function. In this case it couldn't deadlock.

The thread does deadlock. It looks like pci_enable_ats() takes
dev->physfn->sriov->lock, where dev is the VF. I'd understood this to be
a lock protecting SR-IOV state for all VFs configured on the PF (but I'm
not familiar with the code at all!).

Thanks,
Gregor
