Subject: [RFC 2/3] virtio_ring: add VIRTIO_RING_NO_LEGACY
Date: Fri,  7 Dec 2018 16:48:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181207084842.13133-3-tiwei.bie@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181207084842.13133-1-tiwei.bie@intel.com>

Introduce VIRTIO_RING_NO_LEGACY to support disabling legacy
macros and layout definitions.

Suggested-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
Signed-off-by: Tiwei Bie <tiwei.bie@intel.com>

VRING_AVAIL_ALIGN_SIZE, VRING_USED_ALIGN_SIZE and VRING_DESC_ALIGN_SIZE
are not pre-virtio 1.0, but can also be disabled by VIRTIO_RING_NO_LEGACY
in this patch, because their names are not consistent with other names.
Not sure whether this is a good idea. If we want this, we may also want
to define _SPLIT_ version for them.
