+
+The device MUST validate \field{opcode}, \field{group_type} and
+\field{group_member_id}, and if any of these has an invalid or
+unsupported value, set \field{status} to
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_EINVAL and set \field{status_qualifier}
+accordingly:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item if \field{group_type} is invalid, \field{status_qualifier}
+	MUST be set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_GROUP;
+\item otherwise, if \field{opcode} is invalid,
+	\field{status_qualifier} MUST be set to
+	VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_OPCODE;
+\item otherwise, if \field{group_member_id} is used by the
+	specific command and is invalid, \field{status_qualifier} MUST be
+	set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_MEM.
+\end{itemize}
+
+If a command completes successfully, the device MUST set
+\field{status} to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_OK.
+
+If a command fails, the device MUST set
+\field{status} to a value different from VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_OK.
+
+If \field{status} is set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_EINVAL, the
+device state MUST NOT change, that is the command MUST NOT have
+any side effects on the device, in particular the device MUST not
+enter an error state as a result of this command.
+
+If a command fails, the device state generally SHOULD NOT change,
+as far as possible.
+
+The device MAY enforce additional restrictions and dependencies on
+opcodes used by the driver and MAY fail the command
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE with \field{status} set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_EINVAL
+and \field{status_qualifier} set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_FIELD
+if the list of commands used violate internal device dependencies.
+
+If the device supports multiple group types, commands for each group
+type MUST operate independently of each other, in particular,
+the device MAY return different results for VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY
+for different group types.
+
+After reset, if the device supports a given group type
+and before receiving VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE for this group type
+the device MUST assume
+that the list of legal commands used by the driver consists of
+the two commands VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY and VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE.
+
+After completing VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE successfully,
+the device MUST set the list of legal commands used by the driver
+to the one supplied in \field{command_specific_data}.
+
+The device MUST set the list of legal commands used by the driver
+to the one supplied in VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE.
+
+The device MUST validate commands against the list used by
+the driver and MUST fail any commands not in the list with
+\field{status} set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_EINVAL
+and \field{status_qualifier} set to
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_OPCODE.
+
+The list of supported commands MUST NOT shrink (but MAY expand):
+after reporting a given command as supported through
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY the device MUST NOT later report it
+as unsupported.  Further, after a given set of commands has been
+used (via a successful VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE), then after a
+device or system reset the device SHOULD complete successfully
+any following calls to VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE with the same
+list of commands; if this command VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE fails
+after a device or system reset, the device MUST not fail it
+solely because of the command list used.  Failure to do so would
+interfere with resuming from suspend and error recovery.
+
+
+\drivernormative{\paragraph}{Group administration commands}{Basic Facilities of a Virtio Device / Device groups / Group administration commands}
+
+The driver MAY discover whether device supports a specific group type
+by issuing VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY with the matching
+\field{group_type}.
+
+The driver MUST issue VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE
+and wait for it to be completed with status
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_OK before issuing any commands
+(except for the initial VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY
+and VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE).
+
+The driver SHOULD NOT set bits in device_admin_cmds
+if it is not familiar with how the command opcode
+is used, as dependencies between command opcodes might exist.
+
+The driver MUST NOT request (via VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE)
+the use of any commands not previously reported as
+supported for the same group type by VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY.
+
+The driver MUST NOT use any commands for a given group type
+before sending VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE with the correct
+list of command opcodes and group type.
+
+The driver MAY block use of VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_QUERY and
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE by issuing VIRTIO_ADMIN_CMD_LIST_USE
+with respective bits cleared in \field{command_specific_data}.
+
+The driver MUST handle a command error with a reserved \field{status}
+value in the same way as \field{status} set to VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_EINVAL
+(except possibly for different error reporting/diagnostic messages).
+
+The driver MUST handle a command error with a reserved
+\field{status_qualifier} value in the same way as
+\field{status_qualifier} set to
+VIRTIO_ADMIN_STATUS_Q_INVALID_COMMAND (except possibly for
+different error reporting/diagnostic messages).

+\begin{enumerate}
+\item ignoring any data in device-readable buffers outside

+\end{enumerate}
+
+The device SHOULD initialize the device-writeable buffer
+up to the length of the structure described by this specification or
+the length of the buffer supplied by the driver (even if the buffer is
+all set to zero), whichever is shorter.
+
+The device MUST NOT fail a command solely because the buffers

+The driver MUST NOT assume that the device will initialize the whole
