Well it *does* make development of SR-IOV drivers that much harder. As you know, out of tree development is a pain. OTOH if any changes end up being required, they can be done before the code is merged. Anyway, hopefully we won't have to worry about it because some driver will come along soon that uses Yu's code. :) If not, Yu might have to maintain a separate git tree or something until the drivers are ready to be merged. -- Jesse Barnes, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
