[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/13] virtio: cleanup ioeventfd start/stop

[Paolo Bonzini]

This series started as an attempt to always use the dataplane path
for virtio-blk and virtio-scsi when ioeventfd is active.  The aim
was three-fold:

1) to add more coverage for dataplane

2) to remove virtio_add_queue_aio

3) to simplify the dataplane start/stop code

It achieves the first two objectives, and while it doesn't quite
achieve the third it does cleanup the generic ioeventfd code in
virtio-bus more than I expected.  In particular, it reduces the set
of callbacks that transports must implement, and it removes the ugly
case where ioeventfd is started with generic callbacks and then moved
to the dataplane callbacks.  It also enables some simplification of the
functions that deal with host notifiers, and detects some configuration
errors better.

I've tested it with virtio-blk, virtio-scsi and vhost-net.

Patch 1 is a bugfix that I found while testing the TCG+dataplane combo.

Patches 2 and 3 are simplifications that are too nice to leave
them for later in the series.

Patch 4 moves some of the ioeventfd code from virtio-bus.c to
virtio.c.  At this point the transition is a bit half-assed, but
this changes as soon as we remove the generic->dataplane
handler transition.

Patches 5 to 7 do exactly that, and then the spring cleaning
begins, lasting for the whole second half of the series.

Thanks,

Paolo
