                 Key: VIRTIO-140

             Project: OASIS Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) TC
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: virtio 1.0 cs02
         Environment: James Bottomley <jbottomley@odin.com>
            Reporter: Michael Tsirkin

Problems happen if any config space action register is wider than 32 bits, because a 32 bit OS cannot now set it atomically.
