This case amends the VIO communication protocol as defined in FWARC/2006/195 and FWARC/2006/583. This case requests a release binding of for minor/micro for any firmware changes and minor/micro/patch any OS changes. The fast-track timer is set to expire on October 23, 2007. All of the changes are highlighted in the updated document and the interface spec, and can be found in the materials directory at http://sac.eng/Archives/CaseLog/arc/FWARC/2007/602 The brief description of the changes are: 1. Section 1.1.5.1 - Attribute Information The vdisk type values in the attribute message were incorrect in the original documentation and have been corrected to following: VD_DISK_TYPE_SLICE 0x1 /* slice in blk device */ VD_DISK_TYPE_DISK 0x2 /* entire blk device */ The format of attribute message in version 1.0 of the vdisk protocol is corrected to no longer include the vdisk_size field. Version 1.1 of the vdisk protocol will add the virtual disk size and media type fields to the attribute message sent by the vdisk server. The supported vdisk media type values in version 1.1 are: VD_MEDIA_TYPE_FIXED 0x1 /* Fixed device */ VD_MEDIA_TYPE_CD 0x2 /* CD device */ VD_MEDIA_TYPE_DVD 0x3 /* DVD device */ 2. Section 1.1.5.2 - vDisk descriptors The following operations have been added to the version 1.0 of the vdisk protocol. VD_OP_GET_DEVID 0x0b /* Get device ID */ VD_OP_GET_EFI 0x0c /* Get EFI */ VD_OP_SET_EFI 0x0d /* Set EFI */ See sections 1.1.5.14, 1.1.5.15 and 1.1.5.16 for more information on the contents of the following vdisk protocol messages.
