We used to set backend unconditionally, this won't work for some
guests (e.g windows driver) who may not initialize all virtqueues. For
kernel backend, this will fail since it may try to validate the rings
during setting backend.

Fixing this by simply skipping the backend set when we find desc is
not ready.

I think we want an API that explicitly says "queue is enabled".
For 0.X it will return !!addr. For 1.X it will return enabled.
For 1.x, desc.addr won't be set until queue_enabled is set through
virtio_queue_set_vrings(). And it looks to me ccw did something similar of
CMD_SET_VQ.

So we're ok actually?

Thanks

OK maybe but why can't we use an explicit API?
0.X can use addr != 0 trick since there's no queue_enabled.

If I understand correctly, you want something similar to what V1 did? A bus
specific queue_enable() method.

Thanks
For now all I am asking for is simply:
        virtio_queue_is_enabled() {
                /* desc is only set when queue is enabled */
                return vdev->vq[n].vring.desc != 0;
}

and then we can look at moving the enabled flag into
struct VRing longer term.



Ok, let me post V3.

Thanks
