Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 17.11.7

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objection by 07/27/19. So please
shout if anyone has objection.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Thanks.

Yongseok

Subject: [PATCH] vhost: fix silent queue enabling with legacy guests

[ upstream commit 966027b4b3a3e1059bf31ca07340914f6b8bb53a ]

vhost should notify the application in case of all vring state changes.

In general, application should not care about negotiation of
VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES. Protocol details like this should
be hidden by the vhost library.

With this patch applications like OVS will be able to assume that
all vrings disabled by default and only process 'vring_state_changed'
events.

Fixes: 321203a54ba7 ("vhost: enable rings at the right time")
