Subject: [PATCH v3] vfio: selftests: Verify a failed second open preserves the vf_token
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 14:51:32 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260925205134.3505611-1-alex.williamson@nvidia.com> (raw)

The cdev path enforces a single open per device and rejects a second
bind of an already open device.  That rejection must happen before the
bind can mutate state shared across opens, notably the PF vf_token, so
that a bind which cannot complete leaves the current opener's state
untouched.  Before the fix in commit 258ba46543ab ("vfio: Reject a
second cdev open before mutating shared device state"), the second bind
mutated the vf_token and only then failed with -EINVAL.  It is now
rejected early with -EBUSY.

Add a regression test that binds a PF with one token, attempts a second
bind of the same PF with a different token, then initializes a VF with
the original token.  The VF init succeeds only if the rejected second
bind left the PF vf_token intact; a regression that clobbered it to the
second token would make the VF init fail.  The -EBUSY errno is checked
with EXPECT_EQ() so the clobber assertion still runs if the rejection
returns a different error.

This hazard is specific to the cdev/iommufd single-open path, so the
test runs only in iommufd mode.

v3 following v2 from [1], incorporating David's suggestions to combine
the tests using EXPECT_EQ() rather than ASSERT_EQ() so that we still
test both aspects without duplicating code.  -EINVAL reference moved to
commit log.  Remaining patches from [1] applied to vfio next branch.
