if you have a .c file without a .h file you know there's something
fishy. Just add this inside drivers/virtio/virtio_pci_modern.c ?

Will do.


+struct virtio_avq {

admin_vq would be better. and this is pci specific yes? so virtio_pci_


Will do.



+     struct virtio_avq *admin;

and this could be thinkably admin_vq.

Will do.

ouch.
actually there's a problem

         mdev->common = vp_modern_map_capability(mdev, common,
                                       sizeof(struct virtio_pci_common_cfg), 4,                                        0, sizeof(struct virtio_pci_common_cfg),
                                       NULL, NULL);

extending this structure means some calls will start failing on
existing devices.

even more of an ouch, when we added queue_notify_data and queue_reset we
also possibly broke some devices. well hopefully not since no one
reported failures but we really need to fix that.


Hi Michael

I didn’t see the fail in vp_modern_map_capability(), and
vp_modern_map_capability() only read and map pci memory. The length of
the memory mapping will increase as the struct virtio_pci_common_cfg
increases. No errors are seen.

And according to the existing code, new pci configuration space members
can only be added in struct virtio_pci_modern_common_cfg.

Every single entry added here is protected by feature bit, there is no
bug AFAIK.

Could you help to explain it more detail?  Where and why it will fall if
we add new member in struct virtio_pci_modern_common_cfg.


Hi, Michael
        Any comments about this?
Thanks
Feng
