2016-10-11virtio-net: add Max MTU configuration fieldmstsirkin
It is helpful for a host to indicate it's MTU to be set on guest NICs other than the assumed 1500 byte value. This helps in situations where the host network is using Jumbo Frames, or aiding in PMTU discovery by configuring a homogenous network. It is also helpful for sizing receive buffers correctly. The change adds a new field to configuration area of network devices. It will be used to pass a maximum MTU from the device to the driver. This will be used by the driver as a maximum value for packet sizes during transmission, without segmentation offloading. In addition, in order to support backward and forward compatibility, we introduce a new feature bit called VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU.

2016-02-16init: sort status bitsmstsirkin
Status bit order is inconsistent: they are neither in increasing order nor in the order they are likely to be used. The second approach seems more useful since there aren't that many bits, so the numerical order does not help much. A typical order of use would be: ACKNOWLEDGE DRIVER then either FAILED or FEATURES_OK then either FAILED or DRIVER_OK then DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET (if device detects an error) Sort the bits accordingly.

2015-10-21pci: clarify configuration access capability rulesmstsirkin
The point of the configuration access capability is to enable access to other capabilities. The intent never was to allow writes to a random place within device BARs. Limiting drivers simplifies devices - and devices can always add another capability if drivers ever want to access some other range. This resolves VIRTIO-145.

2015-10-21virtio-blk: restore VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH and VIRTIO_BLK_F_CONFIG_WCEmstsirkin
VIRTIO_BLK_F_CONFIG_WCE is important in order to achieve good performance (up to 2x, though more realistically +30-40%) in latency-bound workloads. However, it was removed by mistake together with VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH. In addition, even removing VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH was probably not a great idea, because it simplifies simple drivers (e.g. firmware) that are okay with a writethrough cache but still need data to persist after power loss. What really should have been removed is just the possibility that devices not propose VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH, but even that only deserves a "SHOULD" in the new world of conformance statements. Restore these, with the following changes: * clarify and use conformance statements in order to define writeback and writethrough caching according to what is commonly done by high-end storage. * clarify (with conformance statements) the influence of the VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH feature on caching and how to proceed if only one of VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH and VIRTIO_BLK_F_CONFIG_WCE is negotiated. * strengthen the requirement for persisting writes to MUST after a VIRTIO_BLK_T_FLUSH request (and in other cases too involving the new features). The suggested behavior upon feature negotiation is okay for the Linux implementation of virtio1, even after the implementation is modified to support the two new features. This fixes VIRTIO-144.

2015-05-18balloon: transitional device supportmstsirkin
Virtio 1.0 cs02 doesn't include a modern balloon device. At some point we'll likely define an incompatible interface with a different ID and different semantics. But for now, it's not a big effort to support a transitional balloon device: this has the advantage of supporting existing drivers, transparently, as well as transports that don't allow mixing virtio 0 and virtio 1 devices. And balloon is an easy device to test, so it's also useful for people to test virtio core handling of transitional devices. Three issues with legacy hypervisors have been identified: 1. Actual value is actually used, and is necessary for management to work. Luckily 4 byte config space writes are now atomic. When using old guests, hypervisors can detect access to the last byte. When using old hypervisors, drivers can use atomic 4-byte accesses. 2. Hypervisors actually didn't ignore the stats from the first buffer supplied. This means the values there would be incorrect until hypervisor resends the request. Add a note suggesting hypervisors ignore the 1st buffer. 3. QEMU simply over-writes stats from each buffer it gets. Thus if driver supplies a different subset of stats on each request, stale values will be there. Require drivers to supply the same subset on each request. This also gives us a simple way to figure out which stats are supported. VIRTIO-143 Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2015-04-22multiple errors: Non-transitional With Legacymstsirkin
virtio 1.0 has two sections titled "Non-transitional Device With Legacy Driver" the first says devices SHOULD fail, the second says devices MUST fail. Clearly a mistake. Other issues: devices don't really fail - they cause drivers to fail. second section seems to be in the wrong place, and also have a section followed by subsection with no explanatory text in between, which is ugly. Finally, this text was originally ritten to handle buggy windows drivers gracefully, but later we changed device IDs so it's not really required there. Might be handy for some other buggy legacy drivers, though no such drivers are known. To fix, drop the duplicate section variant, add some explanatory text, clarify what does "same ID" mean here, and clarify that the work-around is only needed if a buggy driver is known to bind to a transitional device.

2014-12-22block: fixup section levelsmstsirkin
The specification for the configuration layout for block devices should be its own subsection as for all other devices and not be hidden beneath "Feature bits". The normative sections for device operation should appear under the device operation section. VIRTIO-125 Signed-off-by: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S.

2014-08-04legacy: consistently use past tensemstsirkin
Paragraph with general description of feature negotiation for legacy devices mixed present and past tense. As rest of legacy sections all use past tense, fix the only instance of the present tense: s/do/did/ for consistency. It might be argued that legacy devices still have these properties so present tense is more appropriate, on the other hand, using the past tense helps stress the fact that current spec does not attempt to fully describe the legacy device/driver behaviour: this text is only here to serve as motivation for the transitional device/driver requirements.
