[PATCH v7 0/3] PCI: Add d3cold and device-specific reset for Qualcomm devices
Posted by Jose Ignacio Tornos Martinez 4 days, 16 hours ago
Some PCIe devices lack working reset methods for VFIO passthrough scenarios.
These devices typically have no FLR, advertise NoSoftRst+ (blocking PM reset),
and have broken or unavailable bus reset. When a VM crashes, VFIO cannot reset
the device for reuse without a working reset method.

This series addresses the problem by adding general d3cold infrastructure and
device-specific reset for Qualcomm devices:

**Patch 1/3: d3cold reset method**
Adds D3cold as a general reset method with strict _PR3 requirement. Only
attempts true power cycling via platform control (ACPI _PR3), never falls
back to D3hot. This provides genuine power-off reset on platforms that
support it.

**Patch 2/3: device-specific reset for Qualcomm devices**
Adds device-specific reset entries for Qualcomm WCN6855/WCN7850 WiFi cards and
SDX62/SDX65 modems using D3cold power cycling with automatic D3hot fallback.
Uses pci_set_power_state(D3cold) which automatically falls back to D3hot on
platforms without _PR3. Extracts shared pci_dev_d3cold_d0_cycle() helper to
avoid code duplication with general d3cold method. Device-specific reset is
position #1 in reset hierarchy, providing immediate working reset for these
Qualcomm devices.

**Patch 3/3: Qualcomm quirk_no_bus_reset**
Disables broken bus reset for Qualcomm devices. Testing proves this is
device-specific: MediaTek MT7925e works correctly with bus reset using the
same passive M.2-to-PCIe adapters where Qualcomm devices fail, confirming
PERST# is properly wired and the issue is not deployment-specific. Acts as
safety net to prevent broken SBR if users override via sysfs.

v7: Address the comments from Jeff Johnson: the problem was detected for
    the specific devices WCN6855 and WCN7850, use the name of the devices
    instead of the related drivers ath11k and ath12k, which support a large
    number of devices (patches 2/3 and 3/3).
