Both split ring and packed ring use 32bits to describe the length of a descriptor: see struct vring_desc and struct vring_packed_desc. This means the max segment size supported by virtio is U32_MAX. An example of virtio_max_dma_size in virtio_blk.c: u32 v, max_size; max_size = virtio_max_dma_size(vdev); -> implicit convert err = virtio_cread_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_BLK_F_SIZE_MAX, struct virtio_blk_config, size_max, &v); max_size = min(max_size, v); There is a risk during implicit convert here, once virtio_max_dma_size returns 4G, max_size becomes 0.
