[RFC PATCH 06/10] vfio: Add a device notifier interface

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using a vfio device, a notifier block can be registered to receive
select device events.  Notifiers can only be registered for contained
devices, ie. they are available through a user context.  Registration
of a notifier increments the reference to that container context
therefore notifiers must minimally respond to the release event by
asynchronously removing notifiers.
