Subject: [PATCH v2] virtio-ccw: split descriptor/available/used rings (alternate)
Extend vq_info_block so that the addresses for descriptor table, available ring and used ring may be transmitted independently. VIRTIO-23 Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> --- Changes v1 -> v2: - changed res0 from reserved/must-be-zero to reserved/ignored - dropped the requirement for command reject on short data --- virtio-v1.0-wd01-part1-specification.txt | 25 ++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/virtio-v1.0-wd01-part1-specification.txt b/virtio-v1.0-wd01-part1-specification.txt index 6374f86..c1e4e71 100644 --- a/virtio-v1.0-wd01-part1-specification.txt +++ b/virtio-v1.0-wd01-part1-specification.txt @@ -1678,15 +1678,34 @@ host about the location used for its queue.
