[PATCH] virtio-blk: add max sectors feature

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

 



This is a patch to have the guest virtio-blk driver get the value for the
maximum I/O size from the host bdrv, rather than assume that there is no
limit.  Right now we use it for an in-house bdrv driver that needs this
option.  The patches are below, against the latest gits, split into kernel
(kvm) and user-space (qemu-kvm) changes.  I appreciate any comments.

Thank you,
