[dpdk-dev] vhost: unlink existing file for server mode
Checks
Commit Message
Vhost-user startup will fail based on server mode, if the specified
socket file has already existed. The patch introduces function
unlink() to remove the possible existing file.

Oh.
It's such a game: twice a year someone sends this patch to mail list.
I have another one for you:
* Find all the patches equal to this one in archives.
* Read all the discussions.
* Come back if you have some new ideas, not already discussed many times here.
Sorry for my sarcasm.
NACK for this, as usual.
Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

Surely the fact of repeated patches is an indication that this should be
explicitly called out at appropriately places in the code via comments.
Far easier to provide people the info in the code they are changing than
expecting them to trawl through historical mailing list entries.

Yes, you're right. We just discussed the situation locally in the office
and came to the exactly same conclusion. We definitely need the comment
here to prevent future unlink related patches.
