Ok, so that's supposed to be distinct bits that can be or'ed together?

IIRC, the generation stuff is not mandatory in the current version of virtio, as not all transports have that concept. Generally, are any of the callbacks optional, or are all of them mandatory? From what I understand, you plan to add new things that depend on features... would that mean non-mandatory callbacks? _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
