> Subject: [PATCH v4 0/5] vfio/pci: add denylist and disable qat
> 
> This patchset defines a denylist of devices in the vfio-pci module and adds
> the current generation of Intel(R) QuickAssist devices to it as they are
> not designed to run in an untrusted environment.
> 
> By default, if a device is in the denylist, the probe of vfio-pci fails.
> If a user wants to use a device in the denylist, he needs to disable the
> full denylist providing the option disable_denylist=1 at the load of
> vfio-pci or specifying that parameter in a config file in /etc/modprobe.d.
> 
> This series also moves the device ids definitions present in the qat driver
> to linux/pci_ids.h since they will be shared between the vfio-pci and the qat
> drivers and replaces the custom ADF_SYSTEM_DEVICE macro with PCI_VDEVICE.
> 
> The series is applicable to Herbert's tree. Patches 1 to 3 apply also to
> Alex's tree (next). Patches 4 and 5 are optional and can be applied at a later
> stage.

>  - Patch #2: reworded module parameter description to clarify why a device is

> Changes from v1:
