Description ybendito 2016-10-27 15:17:38 UTC

Virtio library defines 'bool' as 'int' and all the drivers include this definition, but netkvm, which is C++ and use 'bool' as fundamental type, which length is 1 byte (VC++ specific). 
As a result, for example, when netkvm calls virtio_device_initialize(...) with 
msix_used=false the parameter is passed incorrectly and virtio library executes get_config/set_config incorrectly.
