Do we want to put wrap_counter at bit 15?
I think I second that - seems to be consistent with
e.g. event suppression structure and the proposed
extension to driver notifications.
Ok, I assumes packed virtqueue support 64K but looks not. I can change it to
bit 15 and GET_VRING_BASE need to be changed as well.

If put wrap_counter at bit 31, the check (s.num > 0xffff)
won't be able to catch the illegal index 0x8000~0xffff for
packed ring.

Do we need to clarify this in the spec?
Isn't this all internal vhost stuff?
I meant the illegal index 0x8000-0xffff.
It does say packed virtqueues support up to 2 15 entries each.

But yes we can add a requirement that devices do not expose
larger rings. Split does not support 2**16 either, right?
With 2**16 enties avail index becomes 0 and ring looks empty.


Yes, so it's better to clarify this in the spec.

Thanks
