The current virtgpu implementation of poll(..) drops events
when VIRTGPU_CONTEXT_PARAM_POLL_RINGS_MASK is enabled (otherwise
it's like a normal DRM driver).
This is because paravirtualized userspaces receives responses in a
buffer of type BLOB_MEM_GUEST, not by read(..).
To be in line with other DRM drivers and avoid specialized behavior,
it is possible to define a dummy event for virtgpu. Paravirtualized
userspace will now have to call read(..) on the DRM fd to receive the
dummy event.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
