> Subject: [PATCH] net/virtio-user: fix virtio net status management
> 
> Apart from the virtio status, there should be also a network related status for
> link status management, current implementation mixes up these two statuses.
> 
> One issue caused by this mixup is when virtio-user running in server mode and
> vhost as a client connects to it, a RARP packet will be generated by virtio-user
> due to VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE bit is detected in the "status"
> in interrupt handler.
> 
> VIRTIO_NET_S_LINK_UP and VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE should be managed by
> a separated field. This patch adds a "net_status" field for this purpose.
> 
> Fixes: e9efa4d93821 ("net/virtio-user: add new virtual PCI driver")
