Subject: [PATCH 0/2] vfio: convert to misc driver
Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2013 11:47:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131212184402.966.34502.stgit@bling.home> (raw)
The control device is pretty easily converted to a misc driver with
static minor number which allows us to support auto load. I've
submitted a request to lanana for the minor number reservation, so
this is mostly FYI until that's approved. Comments and reviews
welcome. Thanks,
Alex
