Re: bhyve: disable msi and msix on virtio reset?

Hi, Yes, writing 0 to the status resister should reset the device including all PCIE state. This implies that vi_reset_dev() needs to take the proper actions to bring the associated pci_devinst (which from the guest’s perspective isn’t a discrete element) back to it’s reset state too. Tycho

Hi, libvmmapi exists to support bhyveload and bhyve. It's as you say an internal library. While there is obviously nothing to preclude it’s use by others, I wouldn’t consider it’s interfaces “public” nor “stable”. Furthermore, though there has been some consideration taken not to recycle

Re: bhyve and legacy

direct descriptor support for virtio block device

The current virtio block device advertises support for the indirect descriptors feature yet is unable to cope if the guest elects not to use them. Attached is a patch for direct descriptors along with an implementation of device reset. Tycho diff -r 7ec7f1183c3c
