Yes, that is consistent with the description on vmbus_request_addr_match(): Returns the memory address stored at @trans_id, or VMBUS_RQST_ERROR if @trans_id is not contained in the requestor. > Shouldn't it return VMBUS_RQST_ERROR in that case? Can certainly be done, although I'm not sure to follow your concerns. Can you elaborate? Thanks, Andrea
