[PATCH 0/1] vfio-ccw: be less trusting

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

 



I'm currently prototyping hsch()/csch() support for vfio-ccw, and
stumbled over this: We currently expect any I/O to be in command-mode,
but don't take care to actively reject transport-mode. This is not an
issue with QEMU (which rejects transport-mode ORBs before even the css
backend gets to it), but better play safe.

Should we want to support transport-mode in the future, we'll probably
need to introduce a capability for it that needs to be enabled by user
space.

[I also still have the doc patch from some time ago queued. Let's see
if we'll collect more patches.]
