[PATCH v2 7/7] vhost: feature to set the vring endianness
This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement
legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the feature
availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set by default).
If cross-endian support is compiled in, vhost abvertises a new feature
to be negotiated with userspace. If userspace acknowledges the feature,
it can inform vhost about the

[PATCH v2 0/7] vhost: support for cross endian guests
Hi,
This patchset allows vhost to be used with legacy virtio when guest and host
have a different endianness. It is a complete rework of my initial post.
Patches 1 to 5 are preliminary work: we move the endianness check out of all
memory accessors to separate functions.
Patch 6 changes the semantics of the accessors so that they have explicit big
endian support.
Patch 7 brings the cross-endian

[PATCH v3 7/7] vhost: feature to set the vring endianness
This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement
legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the
feature availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set
by default).
The ioctls introduced by this patch are for legacy only: virtio 1.0
devices are returned EPERM.

Hi,
This patchset allows vhost to be used with legacy virtio when guest and host
have a different endianness.
Patches 1-6 remain the same as the previous post. Patch 7 was heavily changed
according to MST's comments.
