Some legacy guests just assume features are 0 after reset.
We detect that config space is accessed before features are
set and set features to 0 automatically.
Note: some legacy guests might not even access config space, if this is
reported in the field we might need to catch a kick to handle these.
I wonder whether it's easier to just support modern device?
Thanks
Well hardware vendors are I think interested in supporting legacy
guests. Limiting vdpa to modern only would make it uncompetitive.
My understanding is that, IOMMU_PLATFORM is mandatory for hardware vDPA to
work.
Hmm I don't really see why. Assume host maps guest memory properly,
VM does not have an IOMMU, legacy guest can just work.
Yes, guest may not set IOMMU_PLATFORM.
Care explaining what's wrong with this picture?
The problem is virtio_vdpa, without IOMMU_PLATFORM it uses PA which can
not work if IOMMU is enabled.
Thanks
So it can only work for modern device ...
Thanks
