Right. However, I would still consider using a helper function if
you would not mind. E.g, how about this:
#ifdef CONFIG_KVM
/* Test whether KVM support specific device. */
static inline int kvm_support_device(int vmfd, uint64_t type)
{
struct kvm_create_device create_dev = {
.type = type,
.fd = -1,
.flags = KVM_CREATE_DEVICE_TEST,
};
return ioctl(vmfd, KVM_CREATE_DEVICE, &create_dev);
}
#endif
Thanks.
