[PATCH kvmtool 12/24] virtio/net: Prepare for modern virtio

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

 



The virtio_net header contains a 'num_buffers' field, used when the
VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature is negotiated. The legacy driver does not
present this field when the feature is not negotiated. In that case the
header is 2 bytes smaller.

When using the modern virtio transport, the header always contains the
field and in addition the device MUST set it to 1 when the
VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF is not negotiated. Prepare for modern virtio
support by enabling this case once the 'legacy' flag is switched off.
