[RFC v2 1/5] vfio-ccw: Fix misleading comment when setting orb.cmd.c64

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

 



The comment is misleading because it tells us that
we should set orb.cmd.c64 before calling ccwchain_calc_length,
otherwise the function ccwchain_calc_length would return an
error. This is not completely accurate.

We want to allow an orb without cmd.c64, and this is fine
as long as the channel program does not use IDALs. But we do
want to reject any channel program that uses IDALs and does
not set the flag, which what we do in ccwchain_calc_length.

After we have done the ccw processing, it should be safe
to set cmd.c64, since we will convert them into IDALs.
