If I'm not wrong the enable/disable dance is used just by vhost-user at the moment. Yep, I got the same. My doubts are that for vhost-user-net we enable only the first VirtIONet->curr_queue_pairs queue IIUC. While for other devices (and maybe also for vDPA devices) we enable all of them. I need to figure out if it's safe to do this for vhost-user-net as well, otherwise I need to find a way to leave this behavior. Maxime, could you give us some hints about the tests to use to check that changes do not introduce regressions in vhost-user? Yep, any help on how to test is very appreciated. Thanks, Stefano

If that gets merged before this series, I think we could drop this patch. If I'm not wrong the enable/disable dance is used just by vhost-user at the moment. Maxime, could you give us some hints about the tests to use to check that changes do not introduce regressions in vhost-user?

Some drivers did: parent_set_status(): if (DRIVER_OK) if (queue_enable) write queue_enable to the device Examples are IFCVF or even vp_vdpa at least. MLX5 seems to be fine. I don't get your point here. No device should start reading CVQ (or any other VQ) without having received DRIVER_OK. Some parent drivers do not support sending the queue enable command after DRIVER_OK, usually because they clean part of the state like the set by set_vring_base. Even vdpa_net_sim needs fixes here. But my understanding is that it should be supported so I consider it a bug. Especially after queue_reset patches.

This is vhost-vDPA specific, so I wonder if we can limit the changes to e.g vhost_vdpa_dev_start()? The vhost-net layer explicitly calls vhost_set_vring_enable before vhost_dev_start, and this is exactly the behavior we want to avoid. Even if we make changes to vhost_dev, this change is still needed. I'm working on something similar since I'd like to re-work the following commit we merged just before 7.2 release: 4daa5054c5 vhost: enable vrings in vhost_dev_start() for vhost-user devices vhost-net wasn't the only one who enabled vrings independently, but it was easy enough for others devices to avoid it and enable them in vhost_dev_start(). Do you think can we avoid in some way this special behaviour of vhost-net and enable the vrings in vhost_dev_start? Thanks, Stefano And we want to explicitly enable CVQ first, which "only" vhost_net knows which is. To perform that in vhost_vdpa_dev_start would require quirks, involving one or more of: * Ignore vq enable calls if the device is not the CVQ one. How to signal what is the CVQ? Can we trust it will be the last one for all kind of devices? * Enable queues that do not belong to the last vhost_dev from the enable call. * Enable the rest of the queues from the last enable in reverse order. * Intercalate the "net load" callback between enabling the last vhost_vdpa device and enabling the rest of devices. * Add an "enable priority" order?

[RFC v2 06/13] vhost: delay set_vring_ready after DRIVER_OK
To restore the device at the destination of a live migration we send the commands through control virtqueue. For a device to read CVQ it must have received the DRIVER_OK status bit. However this opens a window where the device could start receiving packets in rx queue 0 before it receives the RSS configuration. To avoid that, we will not send vring_enable until all configuration is used by the device. As a first step, run vhost_set_vring_ready for all vhost_net backend after all of them are started (with DRIVER_OK). This code should not affect vdpa.
