Sure I can respin with both squashed. > Sorry, the implication of this issue is not clear to me. > What is the impact from a user pov? > QEMU maps the CVQ descriptors and avail vring through as read only maps in the case of vDPA. But DPDK is looking for them with RW permissions, so the vhost_iova_to_vva function never selects the right one as valid. Looking for them with RO still picks the map if it is mapped as RW, but the reverse is not true. Let me know if you want me to respin the series with this comment too! > > -- > David Marchand >
