Subject: [PATCH v3] docs: vhost-user: add Virtio status protocol feature
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2020 15:45:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200618134501.145747-1-maxime.coquelin@redhat.com> (raw)
This patch specifies the VHOST_USER_SET_STATUS and
VHOST_USER_GET_STATUS requests, which are sent by
the master to update and query the Virtio status
in the backend.
Signed-off-by: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>

Changes since v2:
=================
- Typo: fix missing # (Jason)
Changes since v1:
=================
- Only keep the spec part in this patch, the implementation will
be part of Cindy's Vhost vDPA series it depends on. The goal is
to be able to implement it in next DPDK release even if Qemu part
is not merged.
- Add GET_STATUS after discussions with Michael and Jason. It can
be used by the master to ensure FEATURES_OK bit set is
acknowledged by the backend.
