[PATCH] virtio_pci: fix capability format, comments

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

 



- queue size can actually be 0 which is not a power of 2
- fix capability format. PCI spec says:
	The layout of the information is vendor specific, except that the byte
	immediately following the “Next” pointer in the capability structure is
	defined to be a length field.
	This length field provides the number of bytes in the capability
	structure (including the ID and Next pointer bytes).

This patch is on top of the new layout branch, too
