You are right, LOG_BASE doesn't make much sense, and LOG_FD isn't
used, despite

Some vhost client/backend are able to support live migration.
To provide this service the following features must be added:
1. Add the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE capability to vhost-net when netdev
backend is vhost-user.
2. Provide a nop receive callback to vhost-user. This callback is for RARP
