Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (VIRTIO-112) 3.1.2 Device Initialization: feedback from ARM


     [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/VIRTIO-112?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Michael Tsirkin updated VIRTIO-112:
-----------------------------------

    Environment: Reported-by: Brian Foley &lt;brian.foley@arm.com&gt;  (was: Reported-by: Brian Foley <brian.foley@arm.com>)
    Description: 
* 3.1.2 &quot;Legacy devices do not support the FEATURES_OK status bit, and
thus did not have a graceful way for the device to indicate unsupported
feature combinations. It also did not provide a clear mechanism to
end feature negotiation, which meant that devices finalized features on
first-use, and no features could be introduced which radically changed
the initial operation of the device.&quot; 

This has mixed tenses (&quot;do not&quot;/&quot;did not&quot;/&quot;which meant&quot;). Probably
should all be present tense, since all the statements are still true of
legacy devices now as well as in the past.
