2014-02-07Cleanup and setup clarificationsrusty
1) Explicitly allow drivers to read config space during feature negotiation. 2) Add the concept of a "live" virtqueue, and explicitly disallow moving it backwards or changing descriptors.

2014-02-07block: legacy SCSI command fix.rusty
When describing the historical layout requirements, it says "status field is a separate read-only buffer of size 1 byte, by itself." That's clearly wrong, as it says above "The final status byte is written by the device" Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@au1.ibm.com> git-svn-id: https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/svn/virtio@204 0c8fb4dd-22a2-4bb5-bc14-6c75a5f43652
2014-02-06whitespace: make all examples unindented, and avoid tabs.rusty
This makes the formatting far nicer. Applying now as it touches almost all examples and layouts, so we can rebase future changes on top of common ground. (Based on feedback from Thomas Huth for one example, and generalized).

2014-01-313.2.1: Language tightening.rusty
1) Lots of "we", replace with "the driver". 2) Use MAY and MUST NOT for spurious notifications. 3) Don't refer to PCI configuration space for notification.

2014-01-294.1.2.5: Legacy: PCI Device Layout: fix PCI header fields orderhornet
The order of the fields in the legacy PCI header seems to get messed up in the new spec, with the "Queue Address" moved behind "Queue Notify". According to the 0.9.5 version of the spec it should be: * Device Features 32 * Driver Features 32 * Queue Address 32 * Queue Size 16 * Queue Select 16 * Queue Notify 16 * Device Status 8 * ISR Status 8 Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com> -- 1.8.3.2 git-svn-id: https://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control/svn/virtio@198 0c8fb4dd-22a2-4bb5-bc14-6c75a5f43652

2014-01-28mmio: Move QueueReady register from offset 0x03c to 0x044hornet

This change: - Turns formatted lists into real lists (itemize, etc). - Turns ascii tables into real tables. - Use \ldots for ... - Moves \footnote to immediately after what it refers to, otherwise we get awkward whitespace before the superscript. - List of stats for balloon contains values in () to match other lists. - Puts lstlisting around CCW code example - Cross references to numbered steps, rather than hardcoded (2) etc. No actual contents changed.

2013-12-02Specify requirements more clearly.rusty
The spec language is mostly written with a view to driver authors, and contains assumptions, eg: The Device Status field is updated by the OS and driver... But the spec is for both device and driver authors. It should specify exactly what is to be done, and by whom, eg: The driver MUST update the Device Status field... 1) Change from passive to active (eg "foo must be reset" => "driver must reset foo"). 2) Upcase SHOULD, MUST etc. There are probably more that I missed. 3) Make the following requirements explicit: - The driver must not clear device status bits. - Make bad on looped descriptors explicit. - Driver must not set VRING_DESC_F_INDIRECT unless negotiated feature. - Available/used ring sections rewritten to be more explicit that driver must not set VRING_AVAIL_F_NO_INTERRUPT. - Following device initialization sequence is a MUST. - Driver must not continue initialization if it sets FAILED. - "memory barriers" are now a MUST, though the weasel-word "suitable" was added. - Driver MUST notify device. 4) Misc changes: - Use "device offers" / "driver accepts" language for feature negotiation. - config space always uses little-endian, remove 'generally'. - "descriptor chain" term used everywhere. - Extraneous "+" deleted. - Remove "Unless explicitly specified otherwise" from PCI spec endian sentence. - Refer to notify_off_multiplier in queue_notify_off discussion.

2013-12-02Terminology: Device and driver, not host and guest.rusty
We've mixed both together, whereas from a spec-reader point of view, "driver" and "device" is probably clearer. CCW part incorporated: Switch the parts of the virtio-ccw specification that did not already to device/driver instead of guest/host. For more general discussions, host/guest is kept (like when talking about guest<->host notifications in general). This should make things more consistent.
