[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 15/17] vhost: enable postcopy protocol feature

Maxime Coquelin maxime.coquelin at redhat.com
Tue Oct 2 11:36:49 CEST 2018


Enable postcopy protocol feature except if dequeue
zero-copy is enabled. In this case, guest memory requires
to be populated, which is not compatible with userfaultfd.
