[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 2/3] libxl: don't reset device when it is accessible by the guest

[Chao Gao <chao.gao@xxxxxxxxx>]

When I destroyed a guest with 'xl destroy', I found the warning
in msi_set_mask_bit() in Xen was triggered. After adding "WARN_ON(1)"
to that place, I got the call trace below:

It seems to me that guest is trying to mask a msi while the memory decoding
of the device is disabled. Performing a device reset without proper method
to avoid guest's MSI-X operation would lead to this issue.

The fix is basic - detach pci device before resetting the device.
