2009-10-22virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.hChristian Borntraeger
Rusty, commit 3ca4f5ca73057a617f9444a91022d7127041970a virtio: add virtio IDs file moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h does not include virtio_ids.h. This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C files into the header files, making the header files compatible with the old ones. In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

2009-09-23virtio: add virtio IDs fileFernando Luis Vazquez Cao
Virtio IDs are spread all over the tree which makes assigning new IDs bothersome. Putting them together should make the process less error-prone. Signed-off-by: Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao <fernando@oss.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2009-09-23virtio: make add_buf return capacity remainingRusty Russell
This API change means that virtio_net can tell how much capacity remains for buffers. It's necessarily fuzzy, since VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC means we can fit any number of descriptors in one, *if* we can kmalloc.

2009-06-12virtio: find_vqs/del_vqs virtio operationsMichael S. Tsirkin
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.

2009-06-12virtio: add names to virtqueue struct, mapping from devices to queues.Rusty Russell
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. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-12-30virtio_console: support console resizingChristian Borntraeger
this patch uses the new hvc callback hvc_resize to set the window size which allows to change the tty size of hvc_console via a hvc_resize function. I have added a new feature bit VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_SIZE. The driver will change the window size on tty open and via the config_changed callback of the transport. Currently lguest and kvm_s390 have not implemented this callback, but the callback can be implemented at a later point in time.

2008-10-22hvc_console: Add a hangup notifier for backendsHendrik Brueckner
I have added a hangup notifier that can be used by hvc console backends to handle a tty hangup. The default irq hangup notifier calls the notifier_del_irq() for compatibility.

2008-07-25virtio_console: use virtqueue notification for hvc_consoleChristian Borntraeger
This patch exploits the new notifier callbacks of the hvc_console. We can use the virtio callbacks instead of the polling code. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: simplify config mechanism.Rusty Russell
Previously we used a type/len pair within the config space, but this seems overkill. We now simply define a structure which represents the layout in the config space: the config space can now only be extended at the end. The main driver-visible changes: 1) We indicate what fields are present with an explicit feature bit. 2) Virtqueues are explicitly numbered, and not in the config space.

2007-10-23Virtio console driverRusty Russell
This is an hvc-based virtio console driver. It's suboptimal becuase hvc expects to have raw access to interrupts and virtio doesn't assume that, so it currently polls. There are two solutions: expose hvc's "kick" interface, or wean off hvc. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
