Regardless, we'll need to fail probe in some cases. ring size of 1 for example (if I'm not mistaken) control vq even needs a bigger ring. Maybe we can fix virtnet to allow smaller rings + fail probe in some cases, all in the same patch/patchset. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
