From 3c1b27d5043086a485f8526353ae9fe37bfa1065 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 22:26:31 -0600 Subject: virtio: make add_buf return capacity remaining This API change means that virtio_net can tell how much capacity remains for buffers. It's necessarily fuzzy, since VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC means we can fit any number of descriptors in one, *if* we can kmalloc.
