Description

Please vote Yes if you agree with all of the following. If you disagree, please vote No. I move that: The TC agrees to resolve the following specification issue: VIRTIO-119: ccw: clarify virtio revision vs. virtio version -------------------------------------- We need to clarify that: - a device operating at virtio version 1 needs to operate at least at virtio revision 1 - a device may operate at revision 1 even if it does not operate at version 1 -------------------------------------- The TC accepts the following proposed changes to the specification: -------------------------------------- Note that accepted commands are governed by revision, not by feature bits: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio/201410/msg00032.html Note that VERSION_1 requires at least revision 1: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio/201410/msg00033.html -------------------------------------- The TC agrees to include the above change(s) in specification version(s) "virtio 1.0 cs03", and future versions of the specification.
