PCI subfunctions (SF) are anchored on the auxiliary bus. PCI physical
and virtual functions are anchored on the PCI bus;  the irq information
of each such function is visible to users via sysfs directory "msi_irqs"
containing file for each irq entry. However, for PCI SFs such information
is unavailable. Due to this users have no visibility on IRQs used by the
SFs.
Secondly, an SF is a multi function device supporting rdma, netdevice
and more. Without irq information at the bus level, the user is unable
to view or use the affinity of the SF IRQs.

Hence to match to the equivalent PCI PFs and VFs, add "irqs" directory,
for supporting auxiliary devices, containing file for each irq entry.

Additionally, the PCI SFs sometimes share the IRQs with peer SFs. This
information is also not available to the users. To overcome this
limitation, each irq sysfs entry shows if irq is exclusive or shared.

For example:
$ ls /sys/bus/auxiliary/devices/mlx5_core.sf.1/irqs/
50  51  52  53  54  55  56  57  58
$ cat /sys/bus/auxiliary/devices/mlx5_core.sf.1/irqs/52
exclusive

"Some PCI subfunctions can be on the auxiliary bus"

Or maybe "Sometimes the auxiliary bus interface is used for PCI
subfunctions."

Either way, the text here as-is is not correct as that is not how the
auxbus code is always used, sorry.

Odd use of ';'?  And an extra ' '?

Not even in /proc/irq/ ?

Not "is", it should be "can be"  Not all the world is your crazy
hardware :)

How would affinity be relevent here?  You are just allowing them to be
viewed, not set.

So this can be msi irqs?  Or not msi irqs?  How do we know?

refcount combined with xa?  That feels wrong, why is refcount used for
this at all?

Why do you need to use refcounts for these?  What does that help out
with?

How can that happen?  Why not just use a normal simple lock for all of
this so you don't have to mess with refcounts at all?  This is not
performance-relevent code at all, but yet with a refcount you cause
almost the same issues that a normal lock would have, plus the increased
complexity of all of the surrounding code (like this, and the crazy
__xa_cmpxchg() call)

Make this simple please.

Adding dynamic sysfs attributes like this means that you normally just
raced with userspace and lost.  How are you ensuring that you did not
just do that?

How can this ever happen?  If not, don't check for it please.  If it can
happen, properly handle it and move on, don't reboot the box.

Not long ago I commented on similar usage for ice driver,
~"since you are locking anyway this could be a plain counter",
and author replied
~"additional semantics (like saturation) of refcount make me feel warm
and fuzzy" (sorry if misquoting too much).
That convinced me back then, so I kept quiet about that here.

The "use least powerful option" rule of thumb is perhaps more important.

I find current API of xarray not ideal for this use case, and would like
to fix it, but let me write a proper RFC to don't derail (or slow down)

Yes, but use a refcount properly if needed, I can't figure out why a
refcount is needed here at all, which is not a good sign.

Why do you need to use an xarray here at all?  Why isn't this just tied
directly to the aux device instead?

[global]
This is just a counter, it is used to tell if given IRQ is shared or
exclusive. Hence there is a global xarray for that.
And my argument is for this case precisely.

[other]
There is also a separate xarray for each auxdev (IIRC) which is used as
generic dynamic container [that stores sysfs attrs], any other would
work (with different characteristics), but I see no problems with
picking xarray here.

for [global] above I find xarray suitable soultion, for the [other] I'll
leave defending it to @Shay :)

Again, why is an xarray needed, why isn't this part of the auxdevice
structure to start with?

mlx5 PCI SFs doesn't have IRQ of their own. mlx5 PF provide IRQs to mlx5
SFs to use. the /proc/irq/ show the IRQ of the PF device. there is no
vendor agnostic way to identify an IRQ of a device, using /proc/irq .
we rule out an option to add a new sysfs to the /proc/irq for a very
norrow use case of SFs.
In additon, we rule out the usage of IRQ name, since these PCI SFs might
share IRQs between peer SFs, as written bellow.

correct, affinity setting is already controlled via /proc/irq. the
motivation here is to show the mapping between PCI SFs and IRQs like PCI
PF/VF and IRQs.

PCI PF/VF showing IRQ type (msi/msix) for each IRQ is lot of
duplication, probably because of the history. As per PCI spec at a given
time, only msi or msix can be enabled, don't both, and this is visible
through the PCI capabilities.
showing msix is not usefull for PCI SFs.

There was a global mutex, will restore it and will replace the refcount

I am not sure I understand, but the IRQs and their sysfs are added
dynamically during SF probe. so user interested in the mapping will
probe the SF before using the sysfs.
is this answering your question?

If I understand you correctly, you are referring to the xarray of the
auxdevice (not the global one).
If so, instead of xarray what can be used by the auxdevice?

I think xarray can do this just fine already??

xa_lock(&irqs);
used = xa_to_value(xa_load(&irqs, irq));
used++;
ret = xa_store(&irqs, irq, xa_mk_value(used));
xa_unlock(&irqs);

And you can safely read the value using the typical xa_load RCU locking.

What if I want to store some struct, potentially with need of some init
call (say, there will be a spinlock there)?

I believe the solution is to extend xarray so it will alloc the struct
(think flex array or user/priv data for "entry") and even init it
(so two new functions).

Yes, that specific pattern is definately a bit tricky, I have a
version in iommufd and I think at least someplace else... A helper of
some sort would be nice and could do a bit more work to be optimal.
