Vincent Whitchurch 5aa608348f mic: vop: Fix broken virtqueues ... VOP is broken in mainline since commit 1ce9e6055f ("virtio_ring: introduce packed ring support"); attempting to use the virtqueues leads to various kernel crashes. I'm testing it with my not-yet-merged loopback patches, but even the in-tree MIC hardware cannot work. The problem is not in the referenced commit per se, but is due to the following hack in vop_find_vq() which depends on the layout of private structures in other source files, which that commit happened to change: /* * To reassign the used ring here we are directly accessing * struct vring_virtqueue which is a private data structure * in virtio_ring.c. At the minimum, a BUILD_BUG_ON() in * vring_new_virtqueue() would ensure that * (&vq->vring == (struct vring *) (&vq->vq + 1)); */ vr = (struct vring *)(vq + 1); vr->used = used; Fix vop by using __vring_new_virtqueue() to create the needed vring layout from the start, instead of attempting to patch in the used ring later. __vring_new_virtqueue() was added way back in commit 2a2d1382fe ("virtio: Add improved queue allocation API") in order to address mic's usecase, according to the commit message.
