@cfg_idx: Used by virtio core. The drivers should set this to 0.
During the initialization of each vq(vring setup), we need to know which
item in the array should be used at that time. But since the item in
names can be null, which causes some item of array to be skipped, we
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
cannot use vq.index as the current id. So add a cfg_idx to let vring
know how to get the current configuration from the array when
initializing vq.
static int vp_find_vqs_msix(struct virtio_device *vdev, unsigned int nvqs,
................
for (i = 0; i < nvqs; ++i) {
if (!names[i]) {
vqs[i] = NULL;
continue;
}
if (!callbacks[i])
msix_vec = VIRTIO_MSI_NO_VECTOR;
else if (vp_dev->per_vq_vectors)
msix_vec = allocated_vectors++;
else
msix_vec = VP_MSIX_VQ_VECTOR;
vqs[i] = vp_setup_vq(vdev, queue_idx++, callbacks[i], names[i],
ctx ? ctx[i] : false,
msix_vec);
