...39;s point of view DMA API is not required: hypervisor would be happy to get access to all of guest memory. That's why it does not set VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM. However, guest decides that it does not trust the hypervisor and wants to force a bounce buffer for its own reasons.

...s flag for new > hosts, including an explanation why. My understanding of ACCESS_PLATFORM is that it means "this device will behave in all aspects like a regular device attached to this bus". Is that it? Therefore it should be set because it's the sane thing to do? -- Thiago Jung Bauermann IBM Linux Technology Center
