Hey Jason,

IMHO, it would be nice if dma_ops of the parent device could be re-used. vdpa_device is expecting to represent a physical device except this simulator, however, there are not enough information in vdpa_device.dev to indicating which kind physical device it attached to. Namely get_arch_dma_ops(struct bus type) can not work on vdpa_device.dev. Then it seems device drivers need to implement a wrap of dma_ops of parent devices. Can this work be done in the vdpa framework since it looks like a common task? Can "vd_dev->vdev.dev.parent = vdpa->dev->parent;" in virtio_vdpa_probe() do the work?

Thanks,
BR

Good catch.

I think we can.

Thanks
