Split the vfio_pci driver into two logical parts, the 'struct pci_driver' (vfio_pci.c) which implements "Generic VFIO support for any PCI device" and a library of code (vfio_pci_core.c) that helps implementing a struct vfio_device on top of a PCI device. vfio_pci.ko continues to present the same interface under sysfs and this change should have no functional impact. Following patches will turn vfio_pci and vfio_pci_core into a separate module. This is a preparation for allowing another module to provide the pci_driver and allow that module to customize how VFIO is setup, inject its own operations, and easily extend vendor specific functionality. At this point the vfio_pci_core still contains a lot of vfio_pci functionality mixed into it. Following patches will move more of the large scale items out, but another cleanup series will be needed to get everything.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
