Description

If you disagree, please vote No.
If you don't have an opinion, please vote Abstain.

I move that:
The TC agrees to resolve the following specification issue:
VIRTIO-117: ccw: provide status accessor for driver
--------------------------------------
ccw currently allows the driver to update the status via WRITE_STATUS; however, it does not allow the driver to retrieve the current status at the device.
--------------------------------------

The TC accepts the following proposed changes to the specification:
--------------------------------------
Provide a new command READ_STATUS allowing the driver to retrieve the device status. Provide this command when revision 2 has been negotiated.

Updated proposal:

--------------------------------------

The TC agrees to include the above change(s) in specification version(s) "virtio 1.1 cs01", and future versions of the
specification.

Reminder: A Voting Member must be active in a TC to maintain voting rights.  As
the Virtio TC has adopted a standing rule to conduct business only by
electronic ballot, without Meetings, a Voting Member who fails to cast a ballot
in two consecutive Work Product Ballots loses his or her voting rights at the
close of the second ballot missed.
