Subject: virtio: support irqfd in virtio_notify_config()
X-Git-Tag: v10.2.0-rc1~76^2~30
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3b11003fa67b3f055637ff52e1fe8327f7590ee1;p=thirdparty%2Fqemu.git

virtio: support irqfd in virtio_notify_config()

virtio_error() calls virtio_notify_config() to inject a VIRTIO
Configuration Change Notification. This doesn't work from IOThreads
because the BQL is not held and the interrupt code path requires the
BQL.

Follow the same approach as virtio_notify() and use ->config_notifier
(an irqfd) when called from the IOThread.
