The direct calls to dma_direct_ops aren't going to help you with legacy virtio, given that virtio is specified to deal with physical addresses, while dma-direct is not in many cases. It would however help with the case where qemu always sets the platform dma flag, as we'd avoid the indirect calls for that. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
