Since I was maintaining an internal tree with patches related to vhost/virtio, I decided to make this staging tree public. It is useful to me and I hope it will be useful to others. Collecting patches like this allows tracking dependencies between patches, their improvement etc. I also rebase the tree so contributors don't have to. Before publishing, I test the tree so it can serve as a known good state for people interested in preliminary testing of patches that aren't yet upstream, improving testing/validation as multiple people can test the same code. Others can send patches referring to that tree to avoid conflicts when several people are working on the same file. I can also ping them collectively, keeping and rebasing the patches that have been posted on list already, so it should be enough to repost a short summary here, rather than flood everyone's mailboxes by pinging each patch or reposting a full patch-set. I would like to stress that this is a staging/testing tree and not fork of any kind: in particular, don't use this in production, wait for patches to land upstream first! If virtio maintainers would like to take over maintaining this tree, please let me know. The tree is here: git://github.com/vkaplans/dpdk.git virtio (Could be at dpdk.org just as well, but I don't have an account there). Beware: do not publish a tree on top of this one as I might be re-basing it. If you want me to add a patch there, just mail it to the list and (preferably) Cc me. Also, please let me know if there are more vhost/virtio related patches that I missed worth includng into my tree. --- Here is the list of patches in my tree: they have been tested by me and are known to work together: 18e570dc vhost: remove duplicate header include bc5a6193 vhost: enable log_shmfd protocol feature 905161a5 vhost: handle VHOST_USER_SEND_RARP request 99373fac vhost: claim that we support GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature 7cabbc72 vhost: log vring desc buffer changes 978cf176 vhost: log used vring changes 21d371b3 vhost: introduce vhost_log_write c71eb45d vhost: handle VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE request 4024209f vhost: Add VHOST PMD 6e2f1457 ethdev: Add a new event type to notify a queue state changed event Thanks, -- Victor
