Hi Jason,

Hi all:
The code used to busy poll for cvq command which turns out to have
several side effects:
1) infinite poll for buggy devices
2) bad interaction with scheduler
So this series tries to use sleep instead of busy polling. In this
version, I take a step back: the hardening part is not implemented and
leave for future investigation. We use to aggree to use interruptible
sleep but it doesn't work for a general workqueue.
Please review.
Thanks for working on this.
My DPDK VDUSE RFC missed to set the interrupt, as Xuan Zhou highlighted
it makes the vdpa dev add/del commands to freeze:
[<0>] device_del+0x37/0x3d0
[<0>] device_unregister+0x13/0x60
[<0>] unregister_virtio_device+0x11/0x20
[<0>] device_release_driver_internal+0x193/0x200

[<0>] device_del+0x174/0x3d0
[<0>] device_unregister+0x13/0x60

[<0>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc
Once fixed on DPDK side (you can use my vduse_v1 branch [0] for
testing), it works fine:
Tested-by: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@xxxxxxxxxx>
For the potential missing interrupt with non-compliant devices, I guess
it could be handled with the hardening work as same thing could happen
if the VDUSE application crashed for example.

Maxime

Thanks
Changes since V1:
- use RTNL to synchronize rx mode worker
- use completion for simplicity
- don't try to harden CVQ command
Changes since RFC:
- switch to use BAD_RING in virtio_break_device()
- check virtqueue_is_broken() after being woken up
- use more_used() instead of virtqueue_get_buf() to allow caller to
get buffers afterwards
- break the virtio-net device when timeout
- get buffer manually since the virtio core check more_used() instead
Jason Wang (2):
virtio-net: convert rx mode setting to use workqueue
virtio-net: sleep instead of busy waiting for cvq command
