Recently, two new messages have been added to the vhost-user protocol that make the device initialization more robust.
VHOST_VIRTIO_SET_STATUS allows the driver to set the device status VHOST_VIRTIO_GET_STATUS allows the driver to read the status back from the device This series implements these features in the virtio-user pmd --- v2: - Drop "net/virtio: split virtio-net and virtio status" An identical patch has already been merged - [Chenbo] Log when set-status fails Adrian Moreno (3): net/virtio: add DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET status bit net/virtio: add GET_STATUS support to virtio-user net/virtio: enable feature checking on virtio-user Maxime Coquelin (1): net/virtio: add VIRTIO_SET_STATUS support to Virtio-user drivers/net/virtio/virtio_ethdev.c | 13 ++-- drivers/net/virtio/virtio_pci.h | 13 ++-- drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user/vhost.h | 6 ++ drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user/vhost_user.c | 12 ++++ .../net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.c | 68 ++++++++++++++++++- .../net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.h | 2 + drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user_ethdev.c | 3 + 7 files changed, 104 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 2.26.2
