Description

Please vote Yes if you agree with all of the following. 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-139: pci: missing documentation for dealing with 64 bit config fields -------------------------------------- pci spec says what width access to use for 32, 16 and 8 bit fields, but does not explicitly say what to do for 32 bit fields. As some implementations might not be able to generate 64 bit accesses, either allow both 32 and 64 bit accesses, or require two 32-bit accesses. -------------------------------------- The TC accepts the following proposed changes to the specification: -------------------------------------- http://mid.gmane.org/1427913694-16309-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com -------------------------------------- The TC agrees to include the above change(s) in specification version(s) "virtio 1.0 cs03", 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. --------------------------------------
