If you want to add a new register you should probably propose an update to the virtio spec. However, it seems to me it would be better to get generic PCI/PCIe working on the ARM virt board instead; then we can let virtio-mmio quietly fade away. This has been on the todo list for ages (and there have been RFC patches posted for plain PCI), it's just nobody's had time to work on it. thanks -- PMM _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
