Michael S. Tsirkin updated VIRTIO-117:
--------------------------------------

    Environment: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com>  (was: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> )
     Resolution: 
ccw: add CCW_CMD_READ_STATUS

ccw currently allows the driver to update the status via the
CCW_CMD_WRITE_STATUS command; however, it does not allow the driver to
retrieve the current status at the device, which is needed to properly
support DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET.

Therefore, provide a new command CCW_CMD_READ_STATUS allowing the driver
to retrieve the device status. Provide this command when revision 2 has
been negotiated.
