[PATCH 1/3] vdpa: device feature provisioning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch allows the device features to be provisioned through
netlink. A new attribute is introduced to allow the userspace to pass
a 64bit device features during device adding.

This provides several advantages:

- Allow to provision a subset of the features to ease the cross vendor
  live migration.
- Better debug-ability for vDPA framework and parent.
