Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (VIRTIO-30) extend initialization sequence
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/VIRTIO-30?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Michael Tsirkin updated VIRTIO-30: ---------------------------------- Description: in the past we sometimes wanted an ability to make driver gracefully fail early in initialization if it does not recognize/support a feature. One such example we are introducing right now is the new VERSION_1 feature. Drivers need to be able to add buffers before initialization is complete. We also need a "lock point" after which drivers do not change features. was: in the past we sometimes wanted an ability to make driver gracefully fail early in initialization if it does not recognize/support a feature.
