When unplugging a device, at one point the device will be destroyed
via object_unparent(). This will, one the one hand, unrealize the
removed device hierarchy, and on the other hand, destroy/free the
device hierarchy.

When chaining interrupt handlers, we want to overwrite a bus hotplug
handler by the machine hotplug handler, to be able to perform
some part of the plug/unplug and to forward the calls to the bus hotplug
handler.

For now, the bus hotplug handler would trigger an object_unparent(), not
allowing us to perform some unplug action on a device after we forwarded
the call to the bus hotplug handler. The device would be gone at that
point.

machine_unplug_handler(dev)
    /* eventually do unplug stuff */
    bus_unplug_handler(dev)
    /* dev is gone, we can't do more unplug stuff */

So move the object_unparent() to the original caller of the unplug. For
now, keep the unrealize() at the original places of the
object_unparent(). For implicitly chained hotplug handlers (e.g. pc
code calling acpi hotplug handlers), the object_unparent() has to be
done by the outermost caller. So when calling hotplug_handler_unplug()
from inside an unplug handler, nothing is to be done.

hotplug_handler_unplug(dev) -> calls machine_unplug_handler()
    machine_unplug_handler(dev) {
        /* eventually do unplug stuff */
        bus_unplug_handler(dev) -> calls unrealize(dev)
        /* we can do more unplug stuff but device already unrealized */
    }
object_unparent(dev)

In the long run, every unplug action should be factored out of the
unrealize() function into the unplug handler (especially for PCI). Then
we can get rid of the additonal unrealize() calls and object_unparent()
will properly unrealize the device hierarchy after the device has been
unplugged.

hotplug_handler_unplug(dev) -> calls machine_unplug_handler()
    machine_unplug_handler(dev) {
        /* eventually do unplug stuff */
        bus_unplug_handler(dev) -> only unplugs, does not unrealize
        /* we can do more unplug stuff */
    }
object_unparent(dev) -> will unrealize

The original approach was suggested by Igor Mammedov for the PCI
part, but I extended it to all hotplug handlers. I consider this one
step into the right direction.

Have you tested all affect use-cases after this patch?

Is this object_unparent() that you moved from qdev_simple_device_unplug_cb()
in the hunk above?

IS it possible to split patch per subsystem for easier review?

I tested some (e.g. ACPI PCI hotplug/unplug, s390x PCI hotplug/unplug
...) to make sure this fundamentally workd, but certainly not all yet :)

Yes, I moved it from all unplug handlers that do an object_unparent().

I am afraid not, unless you have an idea on how to do that (we could
temporarily somehow remember for each hotplug handler if it will delete
device itself or not - but I don't really like that approach).

Thanks!

I've looked at acpi/pci/pcie/shcp and qdev parts and it looks correct,
so for that parts on condition of complete manual testing (a device per affected unplug chain),

Reviewed-by: Igor Mammedov <imammedo@redhat.com>


we have limited coverage in tests, see qtest_qmp_device_del() for devices
that allow surprise removal but that covers only qdev_simple_device_unplug_cb()
part and is not sufficient.

It might be better adding missing ones at least one per category there,
but it implies simulating eject sequence from guest side (we do similar
thing to test device models using qtest accelerator), that should cover
all cases.
