This complex process makes it very difficult to locate and analyze
the cause when the function fails.

In order to quickly locate the cause of the problem when the
live migration fails, I added a set of debugfs to the vfio
live migration driver.

The entire debugfs directory will be based on the definition of
the CONFIG_DEBUG_FS macro. If this macro is not enabled, the
interfaces in vfio.h will be empty definitions, and the creation
and initialization of the debugfs directory will not be executed.

     |    +---migration
     |        +--state
     |
     +---<dev_name2>
          +---migration
              +--state

debugfs will create a public root directory "vfio" file.
then create a dev_name() file for each live migration device.
First, create a unified state acquisition file of "migration"
in this device directory.
Then, create a public live migration state lookup file "state".

seq_puts() is more appropriate than seq_printf() above.


There is no difference between seq_puts() and seq_printf() here,
no need to modify it.

seq_puts is simply preferred for unformatted output.

I would suggest to add an array or some helper, that the VFIO drivers
could use to debug the migration flow with pr_* primitives. It can be
done later.


If you want to debug this migration process in the VFIO driver,
you can refer to vdev->mig_ops->migration_get_state() to read the status.

mig_dir maybe ?


"vfio_dev_migration " will not affect the readability of the code.

It would be easier to understand the nature of the variable IMHO.

superfluous change.


A blank line here is to separate it from the comment above.
Makes it easier to be read.

Can it be called from __vfio_register_dev() instead ? and mdev devices
would get debugfs support also.


This is for symmetry in function calls.
The need for symmetry was mentioned in the previous review.

yes. But this is also exluding the mdev devices which is a large VFIO family.
