So, I still don't understand what the security risk you are talking about is, and what do you think the security design should look like? Can you elaborate on it?

Each security domain must have its own PCI BDF.

The basic unit to perform the live migration function is the VF, and the basic function of the VF is the business function of the device. If the live migration function and the business function are completely separated, and they are bound to their respective VFs, it will result in the ability to execute the business in the guest A functional VF cannot perform live migration, and a VF with a live migration function cannot perform business functions in the guest.

In fact, the scenario that requires live migration is to migrate its business functions to the VFs of other hosts when the VF's business functions are heavily loaded. This usage scenario itself requires that the VF needs to have these two functions at the same time.

Other vendors are managing, it is not an unsolvable problem.

I think these patches can't advance in any form without somehow addressing the isolation issue.
