The only flags available here are the ones defined by virtio spec and these are not i2c flags. I also looked at your i2c backend for acrn and it mistakenly copies the hdr.flag, which is the virtio flag and not i2c flag. https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-hypervisor/blob/master/devicemodel/hw/pci/virtio/virtio_i2c.c#L539 I will send a fix for the specs if you agree that there is a problem here. what am I missing here ? This should have been caught in your testing and so I feel I must be missing something. -- viresh
