Subject: [PATCH 1/2] virtio_balloon: add work around for out of spec QEMU
Date: Fri, 5 Jul 2024 06:08:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <14b1a2a1acfcaf6d519db8c67f6f207d7cdd7c3b.1720173841.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1720173841.git.mst@redhat.com>

QEMU implemented the configuration
	VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_REPORTING && ! VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT
incorrectly: it then uses vq3 for reporting, spec says it is always 4.

This is masked by a corresponding bug in driver:
add a work around as I'm going to try and fix the driver bug.
