Not all subsystems use the fact that we may have the same _IOC_NR for
different _IOC_DIR, as in the end it'll result in a different ioctl
number.
So, for instance, vhost virtio has:
#define VHOST_GET_FEATURES _IOR(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x00, __u64)
#define VHOST_SET_FEATURES _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x00, __u64)
So same _IOC_NR (0x00) but different _IOC_DIR (R versus W), but it also
have:
#define VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x13, struct vhost_vring_state)
#define VHOST_GET_VRING_ENDIAN _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x14, struct vhost_vring_state)
A "get" operation that uses a "W" _IOC_DIR, and its implementation, uses
copy_to_user, it should've probably been _IOR().
Then:
/* Base value where queue looks for available descriptors */
#define VHOST_SET_VRING_BASE _IOW(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x12, struct vhost_vring_state)
/* Get accessor: reads index, writes value in num */
#define VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE _IOWR(VHOST_VIRTIO, 0x12, struct vhost_vring_state)
So we'll need to use _IOC_DIR() to disambiguate the VHOST_VIRTIO ioctl
bautifier.
