This could be relevant in case of VFIO, when we are assigning multiple devices to a single VM. All the devices can share the same stream ID. -Varun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
