[PATCH 2/2] vhost: handle polling failure

2012-12-26 Thread Jason Wang

Currently, polling error were ignored in vhost. This may lead some issues (e.g kenrel crash when passing a tap fd to vhost before calling TUNSETIFF). Fix this by: - extend the idea of vhost_net_poll_state to all vhost_polls - change the state only when polling is succeed - make vhost_poll_start()
