True

Ok, I guess you mean this patch breaks following 2 scenarios:

1) the device is bound to pci-stub before attach-device
2) the device is not bound to any driver before attach-device

For3), the patch is fine.

The problem is if we attach a device bound to other driver with
"managed=yes", if it fails on attachment, it will never be reattached
to host successfully.

As a simple reproduce method, you can try to attach a PCI device
after turn off VT-d support.

I didn't realize the patch breaks 1) and 2) scenarios. Thanks for
pointing it out.

Then I guess we lost the original dev->ubind_from_stub/dev->remove_slot/
dev->probe (all of some of them) in manged mode. Need to track more.
