Subject: [PATCH-v2] tcm_vhost: Avoid VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX feature bit
Date: Fri, 29 Mar 2013 00:50:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364518226-31372-1-git-send-email-nab@linux-iscsi.org> (raw)
From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>
This patch adds a VHOST_SCSI_FEATURES mask minus VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX
so that vhost-scsi-pci userspace will strip this feature bit once
GET_FEATURES reports it as being unsupported on the host.
This is to avoid a bug where ->handle_kicks() are missed when EVENT_IDX
is enabled by default in userspace code.
(mst: Rename to VHOST_SCSI_FEATURES add comment)
