I'd planned on looking at them as I get into the meat of patches 4-6 on the kernel side, where the overlap occurs. I'm getting close. :) FWIW, I've been running with both series for the last week or two, along with some host kernel traces to prove things got executed the way I thought, and it's seemed to be working well. So that makes me optimistic for the later patches. - Eric > >> >> Currently, vfio-ccw only relays START SUBCHANNEL requests to the real >> device.

(I'll probably rebase the QEMU side as well when I do resend.) > > FWIW, I've been running with both series for the last week or two, along > with some host kernel traces to prove things got executed the way I > thought, and it's seemed to be working well.

Lately it's just fio, run via some ancient scripts which randomize the input parameters and distill the output data. If I get some time to make it less hack-y it might be worth sharing, but right now there's more things commented out than actual script. :) - Eric
