[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3] vhost: Fix default value of kickfd and callfd

Mon Mar 14 09:53:32 CET 2016


Currently, default values of kickfd and callfd are -1.
If the values are -1, current code guesses kickfd and callfd haven't
been initialized yet. Then vhost library will guess the virtqueue isn't
ready for processing.
But callfd and kickfd will be set as -1 when "--enable-kvm"
isn't specified in QEMU command line. It means we cannot treat -1 as
uninitialized state.
The patch defines -1 and -2 as VIRTIO_INVALID_EVENTFD and
VIRTIO_UNINITIALIZED_EVENTFD, and uses VIRTIO_UNINITIALIZED_EVENTFD for
the default values of kickfd and callfd.
