	It's handy for userspace emulators like QEMU. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2015-01-23	virtio-mmio: Update the device to OASIS spec version	Pawel Moll	1	-7/+37
	This patch add a support for second version of the virtio-mmio device, which follows OASIS "Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) Version 1.0" specification. Main changes: 1. The control register symbolic names use the new device/driver nomenclature rather than the old guest/host one. 2. The driver detect the device version (version 1 is the pre-OASIS spec, version 2 is compatible with fist revision of the OASIS spec) and drives the device accordingly. 3. New version uses direct addressing (64 bit address split into two low/high register) instead of the guest page size based one, and addresses each part of the queue (descriptors, available, used) separately. 4. The device activity is now explicitly triggered by writing to the "queue ready" register. 5. Whole 64 bit features are properly handled now (both ways).

2011-11-02	virtio: Add platform bus driver for memory mapped virtio device	Pawel Moll	1	-0/+111
	This patch, based on virtio PCI driver, adds support for memory mapped (platform) virtio device. This should allow environments like qemu to use virtio-based block & network devices even on platforms without PCI support. One can define and register a platform device which resources will describe memory mapped control registers and "mailbox" interrupt. Such device can be also instantiated using the Device Tree node with compatible property equal "virtio,mmio".
