vhost: allow vhost-scsi driver to be built-in

2018-08-21T22:01:32+00:00

It's useful to allow vhost-scsi to be built-in when testing vhost in L1
+ L2 VMs and booting L1 VM with QEMU '-kernel' option.

tap: tap as an independent module

2017-02-12T01:59:41+00:00

This patch makes tap a separate module for other types of virtual interfaces, for example,
ipvlan to use.

vhost: split out vringh Kconfig

2016-08-02T13:54:28+00:00

vringh is pulled in by caif and mic, but the other
vhost config does not need to be there.
In particular, it makes no sense to have vhost net/scsi/sock
under caif/mic.

Create a separate Kconfig file and put vringh bits there.

vhost: drop vringh dependency

2016-08-01T23:57:28+00:00

vringh isn't used by vhost net or scsi - it's used
by CAIF only at the moment. Drop the dependency.

vhost: cross-endian support for legacy devices

2015-06-01T13:48:55+00:00

This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement
legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the
feature availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set
by default).

The vq->is_le boolean field is added to cache the endianness to be
used for ring accesses. It defaults to native endian, as expected
by legacy virtio devices. When the ring gets active, we force little
endian if the device is modern. When the ring is deactivated, we
revert to the native endian default.

If cross-endian was compiled in, a vq->user_be boolean field is added
so that userspace may request a specific endianness. This field is
used to override the default when activating the ring of a legacy
device. It has no effect on modern devices.

vhost: Make vhost a separate module

2013-07-07T14:33:44+00:00

Currently, vhost-net and vhost-scsi are sharing the vhost core code.
However, vhost-scsi shares the code by including the vhost.c file
directly.

Making vhost a separate module makes it is easier to share code with
other vhost devices.

Merge tag 'virtio-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux

2013-05-02T21:14:04+00:00

Pull virtio & lguest updates from Rusty Russell:
 "Lots of virtio work which wasn't quite ready for last merge window.

  Plus I dived into lguest again, reworking the pagetable code so we can
  move the switcher page: our fixmaps sometimes take more than 2MB now..."

Ugh.  Annoying conflicts with the tcm_vhost -> vhost_scsi rename.
Hopefully correctly resolved.

vringh: host-side implementation of virtio rings.

2013-03-20T03:35:33+00:00

Getting use of virtio rings correct is tricky, and a recent patch saw
an implementation of in-kernel rings (as separate from userspace).

This abstracts the business of dealing with the virtio ring layout
from the access (userspace or direct); to do this, we use function
pointers, which gcc inlines correctly.
