Hmm ..are you suggesting that we read the Version register as part of reset code and do the wait part only for v3 device? Otherwise we have the same issue as feature bit with version change also. Can't the driver do the same with feature register also? Do poll if WAIT_FOR_RESET_COMPLETION feature bit is set, which can happen before feature negotiation is complete. - vatsa -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is submitting the attached "feedback" as a non-member to the virtio-dev mailing list for consideration and inclusion.
