Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 18.08.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/29/18. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] net/virtio-user: do not reset owner when driver resets

[ upstream commit 74dc6746a0f195907ec487df7de18a856108482f ]

When driver resets the device, virtio-user just needs to send
GET_VRING_BASE messages to stop the vhost backend, and that's
what QEMU does. With this change, we won't need to set owner
when starting virtio-user device anymore. This will help us to
get rid of below error message on startup:

vhost_kernel_ioctl(): VHOST_SET_OWNER failed: Device or resource busy

Fixes: bce7e9050f9b ("net/virtio-user: fix start with kernel vhost")
Fixes: 0d6a8752ac9d ("net/virtio-user: fix crash as features change")
