Subject: [PATCH V4 2/3] vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend
Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2013 18:28:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1358245726-16250-3-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1358245726-16250-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com>

Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues:

- vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll,
  this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to
  add itself to the waitqueue
- userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling
  failed.

Solve this by:

- check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue
- report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value
  will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend

After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it
will addressed by the next patch.
