Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2 2/2] Allow PCI virtio on ARM "virt" machine
Hi,
I am working on tests, and i have discovered some issues with my
current implementation.
Whether i concentrate my efforts on fixing them or just redo everything from scratch,
depends on
what you say no. So what is the final verdict? Should we:
a) Change the default to PCI, for better performance; or:
b) Leave the default as it is, but make explicit <address type='pci'>
working?
Clearly (b). For the default it is important that it is backward
compatible (to older libvirt versions) and works with as many guests as
possible.
You might want to have a look at libosinfo which records (among other
information) which guest can handle which device type, exactly to allow
this kind of optimization.
cheers,
Gerd
