BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of it

2009-09-23T14:39:29+00:00

gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for
BUILD_BUG_ON() useless, as that doesn't produce any diagnostic if the
controlling expression isn't really constant.  Instead, this patch makes
it so that a bit field gets used here.  Consequently, those uses where the
condition isn't really constant now also need fixing.

Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases
MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if
the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields
true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the
whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

lguest and virtio: cleanup struct definitions to Linux style.

2009-07-30T06:33:46+00:00

I've been doing this for years, and akpm picked me up on it about 12
months ago.  lguest partly serves as example code, so let's do it Right.

Also, remove two unused fields in struct vblk_info in the example launcher.

virtio: teach virtio_has_feature() about transport features

2009-06-12T12:46:38+00:00

Drivers don't add transport features to their table, so we
shouldn't check these with virtio_check_driver_offered_feature().

We could perhaps add an ->offered_feature() virtio_config_op,
but that perhaps that would be overkill for a consitency check
like this.

virtio: find_vqs/del_vqs virtio operations

2009-06-12T12:46:36+00:00

This replaces find_vq/del_vq with find_vqs/del_vqs virtio operations,
and updates all drivers. This is needed for MSI support, because MSI
needs to know the total number of vectors upfront.

virtio: add names to virtqueue struct, mapping from devices to queues.

2009-06-12T12:46:36+00:00

Add a linked list of all virtqueues for a virtio device: this helps for
debugging and is also needed for upcoming interface change.

Also, add a "name" field for clearer debug messages.

virtio: Rename set_features to finalize_features

2008-07-25T02:06:12+00:00

Rather than explicitly handing the features to the lower-level, we just
hand the virtio_device and have it set the features.  This make it clear
that it has the chance to manipulate the features of the device at this
point (and that all feature negotiation is already done).

virtio: Formally reserve bits 28-31 to be 'transport' features.

2008-07-25T02:06:07+00:00

We assign feature bits as required, but it makes sense to reserve some
for the particular transport, rather than the particular device.

virtio: clarify that ABI is usable by any implementations

2008-07-25T02:06:04+00:00

We want others to implement and use virtio, so it makes sense to BSD
license the non-__KERNEL__ parts of the headers to make this crystal
clear.

virtio: force callback on empty.

2008-05-30T05:09:46+00:00

virtio allows drivers to suppress callbacks (ie. interrupts) for
efficiency (no locking, it's just an optimization).

There's a similar mechanism for the host to suppress notifications
coming from the guest: in that case, we ignore the suppression if the
ring is completely full.

It turns out that life is simpler if the host similarly ignores
callback suppression when the ring is completely empty: the network
driver wants to free up old packets in a timely manner, and otherwise
has to use a timer to poll.

We have to remove the code which ignores interrupts when the driver
has disabled them (again, it had no locking and hence was unreliable
anyway).

virtio_config: fix len calculation of config elements

2008-05-30T05:09:45+00:00

Rusty,

This patch is a prereq for the virtio_blk blocksize patch, please apply it
first.

Adding an u32 value to the virtio_blk_config unconvered a small bug the config
space defintions:
v is a pointer, to we have to use sizeof(*v) instead of sizeof(v).
