We've failed to copy and process vhost_iotlb_msg so let userspace at least know about it. For instance before these patch the code below runs without any error: int main() { struct vhost_msg msg; struct iovec iov; int fd; fd = open("/dev/vhost-net", O_RDWR); if (fd == -1) { perror("open"); return 1; } iov.iov_base = &msg; iov.iov_len = sizeof(msg)-4; if (writev(fd, &iov,1) == -1) { perror("writev"); return 1; } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Pavel Tikhomirov <ptikhomirov@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
