Subject: [PATCH v6 0/3] virtio: feature related cleanups
Date: Thu, 27 Nov 2025 01:40:28 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1764225384.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
Cleanup around handling of feature bits:
- address word/dword/qword confusion
- simplify interfaces so callers do not need to
remember in which 64 bit chunk each bit belongs
changes from v5:
rename variables in vhost to make the diff much smaller
changes from v4: address comments by Jason
move features variable to beginning of block
unsigned long -> u64 - they are not the same
changes from v3:
drop an out of date unnecessary kdoc parser change
changes from v2:
- drop unnecessary casts
- rework the interface to use array of bits not
Michael S. Tsirkin (3):
virtio: clean up features qword/dword terms
vhost/test: add test specific macro for features
vhost: switch to arrays of feature bits
