Subject: [PATCH v2 08/22] vfio: Enforce preserved devices are retrieved via LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2026 21:24:55 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260129212510.967611-9-dmatlack@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260129212510.967611-1-dmatlack@google.com>
Enforce that files for incoming (preserved by previous kernel) VFIO
devices are retrieved via LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD rather than by
opening the corresponding VFIO character device or via
VFIO_GROUP_GET_DEVICE_FD.
Both of these methods would result in VFIO initializing the device
without access to the preserved state of the device passed by the
previous kernel.
