Basically on first guest access QEMU would tell kernel whether
guest is using the legacy or the modern interface.
E.g. virtio_pci_config_read/virtio_pci_config_write will call ioctl(ENABLE_LEGACY, 1)
while virtio_pci_common_read will call ioctl(ENABLE_LEGACY, 0)


But this trick work only for PCI I think?

Thanks
ccw has a revision it can check. mmio does not have transitional devices
at all.

Ok, then we can do the workaround in the qemu, isn't it?

Thanks
which one do you mean?


I meant the workaround that is done by 452639a64ad8 ("vdpa: make sure set_features is invoked for legacy").

Thanks
