VDPA sim stores config space as native endian, but that

I coded up the following to fix it up, but it is wrong too:
vdpasim_create is called before guest features are known.

So what should we do? New ioctl to specify the interface used?
More ideas?

Can we do the endian conversion in set_config/get_config()?

Thanks
That is problematic at least from static checking point of view.


I don't get here. I thought it's just leXX_to_cpu() conversion in set_config()/get_config() as what is done in MMIO's vm_set/vm_get.


It would be reasonable to do it in vdpasim_set_features, except
legacy guests might not set features at all.
So my proposal is:
- set config in vdpasim_set_features


Just to make sure I understand here. What's the meaning of "set config" do you mean setup the config space? If yes, and if there's a device config space, we still need to do the endian conversion?


- document that this is where devices should initialize config
- vdpa core will maintain a "features set" flag, if get/set config
is called without set features, core will call set features
automatically with 0 value.


Ok, I think you meant checking FEATURE_OK via get_status in vDPA core?

Thanks




Thoughts?
