[PATCH v3 6/8] KVM: kvm-vfio: wrapper to VFIO external API device helpers

Eric Auger eric.auger at linaro.org
Sun Nov 23 10:35:58 PST 2014


Provide wrapper functions that allow KVM-VFIO device code to
interact with a vfio device:
- kvm_vfio_device_get_external_user gets a handle to a struct
  vfio_device from the vfio device file descriptor and increments
  its reference counter,
- kvm_vfio_device_put_external_user decrements the reference counter
  to a vfio device,
- kvm_vfio_external_base_device returns a handle to the struct device
  of the vfio device.

The KVM-VFIO device uses the VFIO external API device functions.

v2 -> v3:
reword the commit message and title

v1 -> v2:
- kvm_vfio_external_get_base_device renamed into
  kvm_vfio_external_base_device
- kvm_vfio_external_get_type removed
