Subject: [PATCH 4/6] admin: Reference transport specific administration virtqueue discovery
Date: Sat, 17 Oct 2026 14:45:54 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261017114556.1701355-5-parav@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261017114556.1701355-1-parav@nvidia.com>
The administration virtqueues section states that the number and
locations of administration virtqueues are exposed in a transport
specific manner, without pointing to where this is described.
Now that both the PCI and the MMIO transports describe it, add
references to the respective transport sections.

If VIRTIO_F_ADMIN_VQ has been negotiated, an owner device exposes one
or more administration virtqueues. The number and locations of the
administration virtqueues are exposed by the owner device in a transport
-specific manner.

The driver enqueues requests to an arbitrary administration
virtqueue, and they are used by the device on that same
