Note that since VDUSE_CONFIG_DATA_LEN is part of uAPI it means we can
not change it in the future.
So this might suffcient for future features or all type of virtio devices.
Do you mean 256 is no enough here？
Yes.
But this request will be submitted multiple times if config lengh is
larger than 256. So do you think whether we need to extent the size to
512 or larger?
So I think you'd better either:
1) document the limitation (256) in somewhere, (better both uapi and doc)
But the VDUSE_CONFIG_DATA_LEN doesn't mean the limitation of
configuration space. It only means the maximum size of one data
transfer for configuration space. Do you mean document this?
Yes, and another thing is that since you're using
data[VDUSE_CONFIG_DATA_LEN] in the uapi, it implies the length is always
256 which seems not good and not what the code is wrote.
Thanks
Thanks,
