What if we use KVM_MSI_VALID_DEVID flag instead of new KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_EXTENDED_MSI definition? I believe this would make an API more consistent and introduce less new definitions. > > diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h b/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h > index 2a23705..8484681 100644 > --- a/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h > +++ b/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h > @@ -841,12 +841,16 @@ struct kvm_irq_routing_s390_adapter { > #define KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_IRQCHIP 1 > #define KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI 2 > #define KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_S390_ADAPTER 3 > +#define KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_EXTENDED_MSI 4 > > struct kvm_irq_routing_entry { > __u32 gsi; > __u32 type; > __u32 flags; > - __u32 pad; > + union { > + __u32 pad; > + __u32 devid; > + }; > union { > struct kvm_irq_routing_irqchip irqchip; > struct kvm_irq_routing_msi msi; > -- > 1.9.1 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Kind regards, Pavel Fedin Expert Engineer Samsung Electronics Research center Russia -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
