Re: [PATCH v4 09/14] virtio: queue_reset: struct virtio_config_ops add callbacks for queue_reset

Performing reset on a queue is divided into four steps:

1. reset_vq: reset one vq
2. recycle the buffer from vq by virtqueue_detach_unused_buf()
3. release the ring of the vq by vring_release_virtqueue()
4. enable_reset_vq: re-enable the reset queue

So add two callbacks reset_vq, enable_reset_vq to struct
virtio_config_ops.

This needs to be marked as optional I think.

It looks to me the caller should also guarantee that the vring is not accsed by any functions e.g NAPI.

Note that we don't have power of 2 requirement for packed virtqueue.

And I wonder if it's cleaner to have a find_vq() ops instead to dealing with the re-allocation and possible size change, or have a dedicated helper to set vring size so driver can do.

reset_vq()

virtqueue_set_vring_size()

enable_reset_vq()

Note that the current implement is best-effort, so it's not guarantee that we can have a vring with ring_num, we may get less under memory pressure or even fail. We probably need to have a pamater to mandate the ring_num otherwise user may surprise to see a decreased size of the ring when a increasing is actually requested.

Thanks
