Is this uAPI meant to address all use cases described in the full blown
_F_STOP virtio spec proposal, such as:
--------------%<--------------
...... the device MUST finish any in flight
operations after the driver writes STOP.? Depending on the device, it
can do it
in many ways as long as the driver can recover its normal operation if it
resumes the device without the need of resetting it:
- Drain and wait for the completion of all pending requests until a
? convenient avail descriptor. Ignore any other posterior descriptor.
- Return a device-specific failure for these descriptors, so the driver
? can choose to retry or to cancel them.
- Mark them as done even if they are not, if the kind of device can
? assume to lose them.
--------------%<--------------
E.g. do I assume correctly all in flight requests are flushed after
return from this uAPI call? Or some of pending requests may be subject
to loss or failure? How does the caller/user specify these various
options (if there are) for device stop?
BTW, it would be nice to add the corresponding support to vdpa_sim_blk
as well to demo the stop handling. To just show it on vdpa-sim-net IMHO
is perhaps not so convincing.
