Print the PCI device syspath to a vfio device's fdinfo. This enables tools
to query which device is associated with a given vfio device fd.

This results in output like below:

$ cat /proc/"$SOME_PID"/fdinfo/"$VFIO_FD" | grep vfio
vfio-device-syspath: /sys/devices/pci0000:e0/0000:e0:01.1/0000:e1:00.0/0000:e2:05.0/0000:e8:00.0

I tested this patch on a POWER9 bare metal system with a VFIO PCI device and
could see the VFIO device syspath in fdinfo.

POWER9 running on OPAL FW : I am curious about the software stack.

I suppose this is the latest upstream kernel ?
Are you using an upstream QEMU to test too ?

and which device ?

Thanks,

C.





  Without this patch:
  -------------------

     [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/7059/fdinfo/188
     pos:    0
     flags:  02000002
     mnt_id: 17
     ino:    1113

  With this patch:
  ----------------
     [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/7722/fdinfo/188
     pos:    0
     flags:  02000002
     mnt_id: 17
     ino:    2145
     vfio-device-syspath: /sys/devices/pci0031:00/0031:00:00.0/0031:01:00.0

..., and the code changes LGTM. Hence,

Changes in v4:
- Remove changes to vfio.h
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250801-show-fdinfo-v3-1-165dfcab89b9@xxxxxx
Changes in v3:
- Remove changes to vfio_pci.c
- Add section to Documentation/filesystems/proc.rst
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250724-show-fdinfo-v2-1-2952115edc10@xxxxxx
Changes in v2:
- Instead of PCI bdf, print the fully-qualified syspath (prefixed by
   /sys) to fdinfo.
- Rename the field to "vfio-device-syspath". The term "syspath" was
   chosen for consistency e.g. libudev's usage of the term.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250623-vfio-fdinfo-v1-1-c9cec65a2922@xxxxxx
