Subject: [PATCH] virtio_pci: fix capability format, comments
Date: Tue, 28 May 2013 11:08:16 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130528080816.GA23399@redhat.com> (raw)

- queue size can actually be 0 which is not a power of 2
- fix capability format. PCI spec says:
	The layout of the information is vendor specific, except that the byte
	immediately following the “Next” pointer in the capability structure is
	defined to be a length field.
	This length field provides the number of bytes in the capability
	structure (including the ID and Next pointer bytes).

Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

This patch is on top of the new layout branch, too
