This series addresses some issues identified in the virtio-user driver when configured in server mode.
Firstly, properly identify the backend type in this mode. Secondly, ensure no get/set status commands are sent before protocol feature negotiation to avoid sending them to a backend that does not support them And finally, add get/set status as per virtio spec so that it can work with modern vhost-user backends that rely on this message to start the device. -- v1->v2: Added patch 2 and 3 addressing additional issues Check errno to select vhost-user backend and log the detected backend type Adrian Moreno (3): virtio-user: fix backend selection if stat fails virtio_user: don't set/get_status until FEATURES_OK virtio-user: set status on virtio-user reconnect drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user/vhost_user.c | 10 ++++++---- .../net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.c | 7 +++++++ .../net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.h | 1 + drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user_ethdev.c | 20 ++++++++++++++++--- 4 files changed, 31 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) -- 2.26.2
