commite73638e55fupstream. Bitfield operations are not atomic, they use a read-modify-write pattern, therefore we should be careful not to pack bitfields that can be concurrently updated into the same storage unit. This split takes a binary approach: flags that are only modified pre/post open/close remain bitfields, flags modified from user action, including actions that reach across to another device (ex. reset) use dedicated storage units. Note that the virq_disabled and bardirty flags are relocated to fill an existing hole in the structure. Bitfield justifications: has_dyn_msix: written only in vfio_pci_core_enable() pci_2_3: written only in vfio_pci_core_enable() reset_works: written only in vfio_pci_core_enable() extended_caps: written only in vfio_cap_len() under vfio_config_init() has_vga: written only in vfio_pci_core_enable() nointx: written only in vfio_pci_core_enable() needs_pm_restore: written only in vfio_pci_probe_power_state() disable_idle_d3: written only at .init in vfio_pci_core_init_dev() Dedicated storage units: virq_disabled: written by guest INTx command writes in vfio_basic_config_write() while the device is open bardirty: written by guest BAR writes in vfio_basic_config_write() while the device is open pm_intx_masked: written in the runtime-PM suspend path. pm_runtime_engaged: written by low-power feature entry/exit paths needs_reset: set in vfio_pci_core_disable() and cleared for devices in the set by vfio_pci_dev_set_try_reset() sriov_active: written by vfio_pci_core_sriov_configure() via sysfs sriov_numvfs while bound.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
