2009-03-20Implement cancellation method for dma async I/O (Avi Kivity)aliguori
Move the dma helpers to a private aio pool, and implement a cancellation method for them. Should prevent issues when cancelling I/O while dma is in progress.

2009-02-05Introduce block dma helpers (Avi Kivity)aliguori
These helpers perform read/write requests on entire scatter/gather lists, relieving the device emulation code from mapping and unmapping physical memory, and from looping when map resources are exhausted.

2009-02-05Add a scatter-gather list type and accessors (Avi Kivity)aliguori
Scatter-gather lists are used extensively in dma-capable devices; a single data structure allows more code reuse later on.
