When adapters and/or domains are added to the host's AP configuration, this
may result in multiple queue devices getting created and probed by the
vfio_ap device driver. For each queue device probed, the matrix of adapters
and domains assigned to a matrix mdev will be filtered to update the
guest's APCB. If any adapters or domains get added to or removed from the
APCB, the guest's AP configuration will be dynamically updated (i.e., hot
plug/unplug). To dynamically update the guest's configuration, its VCPUs
must be taken out of SIE for the period of time it takes to make the
update. This is disruptive to the guest's operation and if there are many
queues probed due to a change in the host's AP configuration, this could be
troublesome. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the
'on_scan_complete' callback also filters the mdev's matrix and updates
the guest's AP configuration.
In order to reduce the potential amount of disruption to the guest that may
result from a change to the host's AP configuration, let's bypass the
filtering of the matrix and updating of the guest's AP configuration in the
probe callback - if due to a host config change - and defer it until the
'on_scan_complete' callback is invoked after the AP bus finishes its device
scan operation. This way the filtering and updating will be performed only
once regardless of the number of queues added.

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.
