Pull request overview
This pull request addresses several pain points in the PCILeech firmware generator, focusing on VFIO device management, template rendering security, build system improvements, and script installation.
Changes:
- Enhanced VFIO diagnostics with improved device binding commands using the
new_idapproach for more robust driver management - Added security-focused template validation requiring device profiling data for timing parameters to prevent fingerprinting
- Introduced bitwise operation filters for Jinja2 templates and improved error handling with the
{% error %}tag - Created unified sudo wrapper script (
pcileech-sudo) with automatic virtual environment detection - Enhanced Vivado build script to properly set SystemVerilog include directories

This import is problematic. Importing the module itself (from pcileechfwgenerator.device_clone import board_config) for "patching purposes" creates a circular dependency and is an anti-pattern. The module is already being imported on line 29 where specific functions are imported from it. If the intent is to allow mocking the module in tests, this should be done in the test files themselves, not in the production code. This import should be removed.

This configuration has a logical inconsistency. The file declares timing_config values as critical variables (lines 28-33) that MUST NOT have fallbacks, yet unified_context.py provides DEFAULT_TIMING_CONFIG with default values for these same parameters (lines 70-74), and the template in tlp_latency_emulator.sv.j2 uses these values with the default() filter (lines 57, 60).
Either:
- Remove these timing values from the critical_variables list if defaults are acceptable
- Remove the defaults from DEFAULT_TIMING_CONFIG and update templates to not use the
default()filter for these values
The current state sends mixed signals about whether these values require hardware profiling or can use defaults.

The || operator in this RUN command will mask installation failures. If the editable install (pip3 install -e .) fails, the echo statement will succeed (exit code 0), and the subsequent regular install command will never execute because the || operator short-circuits on success. This should use || followed by the actual install command without the echo, or better yet, use ; if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then to properly chain the fallback installation.

The symlink command on line 67 has an issue. When using ln -sf, the source argument should be relative to the target location or an absolute path. Currently, it's using $INSTALL_DIR/pcileech-sudo as the source, which means the symlink will point to itself (since the target is also in $INSTALL_DIR). The correct source should be just pcileech-sudo (relative to the target directory) or it should be created with ln -sf pcileech-sudo "$INSTALL_DIR/pcileech-build-sudo" after changing to $INSTALL_DIR.

Module 'types' is imported with both 'import' and 'import from'.
