VOP is broken in mainline since commit 1ce9e6055f ("virtio_ring:
introduce packed ring support"); attempting to use the virtqueues leads
to various kernel crashes. I'm testing it with my not-yet-merged
loopback patches, but even the in-tree MIC hardware cannot work.
The problem is not in the referenced commit per se, but is due to the
following hack in vop_find_vq() which depends on the layout of private
structures in other source files, which that commit happened to change:
/*
* To reassign the used ring here we are directly accessing
* struct vring_virtqueue which is a private data structure
* in virtio_ring.c. At the minimum, a BUILD_BUG_ON() in
* vring_new_virtqueue() would ensure that
* (&vq->vring == (struct vring *) (&vq->vq + 1));
*/
vr = (struct vring *)(vq + 1);
vr->used = used;
Fix vop by using __vring_new_virtqueue() to create the needed vring
layout from the start, instead of attempting to patch in the used ring
later. __vring_new_virtqueue() was added way back in commit
2a2d1382fe ("virtio: Add improved queue allocation API") in order to
address mic's usecase, according to the commit message.
