Subject: [PATCH 09/12] vu_common: Accept explicit iovec counts in vu_set_element()
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 15:03:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260227140330.2216753-10-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260227140330.2216753-1-lvivier@redhat.com>
Previously, vu_set_element() derived the number of iovec entries from
whether the pointer was NULL or not (using !!out_sg and !!in_sg). This
implicitly limited each virtqueue element to at most one iovec per
direction.
Change the function signature to accept explicit out_num and in_num
parameters, allowing callers to specify multiple iovec entries per
element when needed. Update all existing call sites to pass the
equivalent values (0 for NULL pointers, 1 for valid pointers).
No functional change.
