I prefer this as an array for two reasons: - It matches what ccw does anyway (we read/write features in chunks of 32 bit), so this makes the backend handling for this transport very straightforward. - While I don't see us running out of 64 feature bits for a while, we'd have to touch every device and transport again when we do. I'd prefer to do this once, as we need to change code anyway. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
