Or am I misunderstanding what you're getting at?Probably. I'm talking about pre- "do transport specific legacy detection in the device instead of looking at VERSION_1" you are probably talking about the post-state. If we had this new behavior for all relevant hypervisors then we wouldn't need to do a thing in the guest. The current code would work like charm.
Yeah, I was thinking more about the desired state. We need to both fix QEMU (and other VMMs or devices should check whether they are doing the right thing) and add a workaround on the driver side to make it work with existing QEMUs. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@lists.linux-foundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
