The series works for stateful devices too. The device context covers it.

It is also optional in the spec proposal.
Most platforms claimed are not able to do efficiently either, hence the vfio subsystem added the support for it.

Huh, it shows the opposite.
It shows that both will seamlessly work.

No need for any of this.

Exactly, we are migrating virtio device for the PCI transport.
As usual, if you have to keep arguing about not doing passhthrough, we are surely past that point.
Virtio does not need to stay in the weird umbrella to always mediate etc.

Series [1] will be enhanced further to support virtio passthrough device for device context and more.
Even further we like to extend the support.

Maybe it is.

Again, I repeat and like to converge the admin commands between passthrough and non-passthrough cases.
If we can converge it is good.
If not both modes can expand.
It is not either or as use cases are different.
