Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 36/42] KVM: plane: handle KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION on the plane fd
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 04:03:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805110324.25067-37-snambakam@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805110324.25067-1-snambakam@linux.microsoft.com>
A plane file descriptor did not implement KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION and failed
with -ENOTTY, but userspace needs to be able to query capabilities on it.
Forward the query to the plane's parent VM, except for KVM_CAP_PLANES
which returns 0 because a plane cannot host planes of its own.
