To help encourage this, we improve the doc HOWTO section on using virtio-user and add a link to that document from the main KNI section in the programmers guide. v3: * Added two extra patches: - rename document files to match new section name - add note to KNI programmers guide section * minor updates to patch 2, and added stable on CC for that patch Bruce Richardson (4): doc/howto: rework section on virtio-user as exception path doc/howto: rename files to match new content name doc/howto: add code example to virtio-user exception path doc doc/prog_guide: add reference to virtio-user from KNI doc ....svg => virtio_user_as_exception_path.svg} | 0 doc/guides/howto/index.rst | 2 +- .../howto/virtio_user_as_exception_path.rst | 214 ++++++++++++++++++ .../howto/virtio_user_as_exceptional_path.rst | 118 ---------- .../prog_guide/kernel_nic_interface.rst | 6 + 5 files changed, 221 insertions(+), 119 deletions(-) rename doc/guides/howto/img/{virtio_user_as_exceptional_path.svg => virtio_user_as_exception_path.svg} (100%) create mode 100644 doc/guides/howto/virtio_user_as_exception_path.rst delete mode 100644 doc/guides/howto/virtio_user_as_exceptional_path.rst --- 2.34.1
