Subject[PATCH 2/2] pci: Add parameter to disable attaching untrusted devices
From
Introduce a PCI parameter that disables the automatic attachment of
untrusted devices to their drivers.

Signed-off-by: Rajat Jain <rajatja@google.com>

Context:

I set out to implement the approach outlined in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/9/1331
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/15/1453

But to my surprise, I found that the new hotplugged PCI devices
were getting automatically attached to drivers even though
/sys/bus/pci/drivers_autoprobe was set to 0.

I realized that the device core's "drivers_autoprobe":

* only disables the *initial* probe of the device (i.e. from
device_add()). If a subsystem calls device_attach() explicitly
for its devices like PCI subsystem does, the drivers_autoprobe
setting does not matter. The core will attach device to the driver.
This looks like correct semantic behavior to me because PCI is
explicitly calling device_attach(), which is a way to explicitly
ask the core to find and attach a driver for a device.

* "drivers_autoprobe" cannot be controlled at boot time (to restrict
any drivers before userspace comes up).

The options I considered were:

1) Change device_attach() so that it takes into consideration the
drivers_autoprobe property. Not sure if this is semantically correct
thing to do though. If I do this, then the only way a driver can
be attached to the drivers would be via userspace
(/sys/bus/pci/drivers/bind) (Good for our use case though!).

2) Make the drivers_autoprobe property available to PCI to use
(currently it is private to device core). The PCI could use this
to determine whether or not to call device_attach(). This still
leaves the other problem (of not being able to set
drivers_autoprobe via command line open).

3) I found the pci_dev->match_driver, which seemed similar to what I
am trying to do, but can't be controlled from userspace. I considered
populating that field based on drivers_autoprobe (still need (2)).
But the problem is that there is the AMD IOMMU driver which is setting
this independently, so setting the match_driver based on
drivers_autoprobe may not be a good idea. May be we can populate it
for untrusted devicesi, based on the parameter that I'm introducing?

4) This patch was my option 4 that helps fix both the problems for me.
