Subject: [PATCH 4/9] kvm: qemu: Add VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:46:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1216899979-32532-5-git-send-email-markmc@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1216899979-32532-4-git-send-email-markmc@redhat.com>

Set the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY feature bit so the
guest can rely on us notifying them when the queue
is empty.

Also, only notify when the available queue is empty
*and* when we've finished with all the buffers we
had detached. Right now, when the queue is empty,
we notify the guest for every used buffer.

Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
