The 'status' attribute for AP queue devices bound to the vfio_ap device driver displays incorrect status when the mediated device is attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed through. In the current implementation, the status displayed is 'in_use' which is not correct; it should be 'assigned'. This can happen if one of the queue devices associated with a given adapter is not bound to the vfio_ap device driver. For example: Queues listed in /sys/bus/ap/drivers/vfio_ap: 14.0005 14.0006 14.000d 16.0006 16.000d Queues listed in /sys/devices/vfio_ap/matrix/$UUID/matrix 14.0005 14.0006 14.000d 16.0005 16.0006 16.000d Queues listed in /sys/devices/vfio_ap/matrix/$UUID/guest_matrix 14.0005 14.0006 14.000d The reason no queues for adapter 0x16 are listed in the guest_matrix is because queue 16.0005 is not bound to the vfio_ap device driver, so no queue associated with the adapter is passed through to the guest; therefore, each queue device for adapter 0x16 should display 'assigned' instead of 'in_use', because those queues are not in use by a guest, but only assigned to the mediated device. Let's check the AP configuration for the guest to determine whether a queue device is passed through before displaying a status of 'in_use'.

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.
