checkpatch.pl wants arrays of strings declared as follows: static const char * const names[] = { "vq-1", "vq-2", "vq-3" }; Currently the find_vqs() function takes a const char *names[] argument so passing checkpatch.pl's const char * const names[] results in a compiler error due to losing the second const. This patch adjusts the find_vqs() prototype and

transports need to be able to detect legacy-only devices (ATM balloon only) to use legacy path to drive them. Add a core API to do just that. The implementation just blacklists balloon: not too pretty, but let's not over-engineer. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

Aiming these for coming merge window. Nothing should change, but get ready for a non-guest-endian config transports, and > 32 features bits. Final one is just an overdue consolidation. Cheers, Rusty. Rusty Russell (7): virtio_config: introduce size-based accessors. virtio: use size-based config accessors. virtio_config: helpers for non-converting accessors. virtio_config: make

Replace duplicated code in all transports with a single wrapper in virtio.c. The only functional change is in virtio_mmio.c: if a buggy device sends us an interrupt before driver is set, we previously returned IRQ_NONE, now we return IRQ_HANDLED. As this must not happen in practice, this does not look like a big deal. See also commit 3fff0179e33cd7d0a688dab65700c46ad089e934 virtio-pci: do not

Hi Michael, this series contains a couple cleanups for the virtio_pci interrupt handling code, including a switch to the new pci_irq_alloc_vectors helper, and support for automatic affinity by the PCI layer if the consumers ask for it. It then converts over virtio_blk to use this functionality so that it's blk-mq queues are aligned to the MSI-X vector routing. I have a similar patch in the

Rusty, here is just patch 1 (using bool as return value in notify API). Thanks. Heinz Graalfs (9): virtio_ring: change host notification API virtio_ring: let virtqueue_{kick()/notify()} return a bool virtio_net: verify if virtqueue_kick() succeeded virtio_test: verify if virtqueue_kick() succeeded virtio_ring: add new function virtqueue_is_broken() virtio_blk: verify if queue is

Rusty, please review this, and consider for this merge window. This fixes the following virtio spec compliance issues: 1. on restore, drivers use device before setting ACKNOWLEDGE and DRIVER bits 2. on probe, drivers aren't prepared to handle config interrupts arriving before probe returns 3. on probe, drivers use device before DRIVER_OK it set Note that 1 is a clear violation of virtio

This patchset tries to go towards implementing both virtio-1 compliant and transitional virtio drivers in Linux. Branch available at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux virtio-1 This is based on some old patches by Rusty to handle extended feature bits and endianness conversions. Thomas implemented the new virtio-ccw transport revision command, and I hacked up some
