A subtle point is that we still drop events and rx packets during the
window where DRIVER_OK has been set but vqs haven't been filled.
This is acceptable because it's unavoidable and equivalent to events
happening before DRIVER_OK is set. What this revision *does* fix is that
vq used buffer notifications are no longer lost. Good.

[PATCH net v3 0/3] vsock/virtio: enable VQs early on probe and finish the setup before using them

2022-03-23 Thread Stefano Garzarella
The first patch fixes a virtio-spec violation. The other two patches
complete the driver configuration before using the VQs in the probe.

The patch order should simplify backporting in stable branches.

v3:
- re-ordered the patch to improve bisectability [MST]

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220323084954.11769-1-sgarz...@redhat.com/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220322103823.83411-1-sgarz...@redhat.com/

Stefano Garzarella (3):
  vsock/virtio: initialize vdev->priv before using VQs
  vsock/virtio: read the negotiated features before using VQs
  vsock/virtio: enable VQs early on probe
