What worries me is how well are these events specified.
Will we be able to write drivers for non-linux guests?
Not sure where to discuss this - this seems like an inappropriate
thread.

Does this return an error to userspace?
If so it's not a good idea I think, GFP_ATOMIC failures are
transient conditions and should not be reported
to userspace.
Can use GFP_KERNEL here?

This can fail if queue is full. What prevents this from happening?

Also what prevents multiple virtinput_send_status calls
from racing with each other? Is there locking at a higher level?

looks like this get_buf can race with add above.
Need some locking.

Also pls avoid != NULL, removing it makes code less verbose.

Why are you kicking here?

coding style violations above. you need spaces around ops like / and *.
Please run checkpatch.pl

what if not set? does something clear the mask?


> + }

doesn't above just implement bitmap_copy or bitmap_or? Will it hurt to
just do virtio_cread_bytes into a temporary buffer and then invoke
bitmap ops? Looks like the buffer is at most 256 bytes:
too large to be on stack, but you can allocate it at probe time.

you read le field into u32 value.
Please run sparse on this code. you will get a ton
of warnings. Same error appears elsewhere.

you add a bunch of bufs but never kick apparently.
you really must kick otherwise device might not
see the buffers.

How about checking VERSION_1 and bailing out of not there?

Add comments explaining why these #s make sense?

Once you do this, virtinput_status can get called,
and that will kick, correct?
If so, you must call device_ready before this.

free on error is out of order with initialization.
Might lead to leaks or other bugs.
Also - can you name labels something sensible pls?
out is usually for exiting on success too...
E.g. out4 -> err_register etc.

You don't really need a reset if you just to del_vqs.
People do this if they want to prevent interrupts
without deleting vqs.

free_device seems to be missing?
