The patch adds new IOCTL command VFIO_EEH_INFO to VFIO container
to support EEH functionality for PCI devices, which have been
passed from host to guest via VFIO.

Is this really an "info" ioctl?
Yeah, "VFIO_EEH_INFO" isn't a good name. How about to have "VFIO_EEH_HANDLER" ?
VFIO_EEH_OP perhaps.  Thanks,
Ok. Will rename it to VFIO_EEH_OP in next revision.
Is there any benefit of a multiplexing EEH ioctl over just 7 individual 
ioctls?
