[PATCH 0/2] virtio-balloon: Free page hinting clean-ups

Posted by Alexander Duyck 3 years, 11 months ago

This series contains a couple minor cleanups related to free page hinting.

The first patch addresses what I believe is a possible issue in which the
driver could potentially force the device out of the stop state and back
into the running state if it were to replay an earlier virtqueue element
containing the same ID it had submitted earlier.

The second patch takes care of renaming various hinting objects that were
using "reporting" in the name to try and clarify which objects are for free
page reporting and which are for free page hinting.
