We return -EIO on device down but can not raise EPOLLOUT after it was
up. This may confuse user like vhost which expects tuntap to raise
EPOLLOUT to re-enable its TX routine after tuntap is down. This could
be easily reproduced by transmitting packets from VM while down and up
the tap device. Fixing this by set SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE on -EIO.

Isn't this racy?  What if flag is cleared at this point?
I think you mean "set at this point"? Then yes, so we probably need to
set the bit during tun_net_close().

Thanks
Looks no need, vhost will poll socket after it see EIO. So we are ok here?

Thanks
In fact I don't even understand why does this help any longer.

We disable tx polling and only enable it on demand for a better rx
performance. You may want to have a look at :

     vhost_net: conditionally enable tx polling

Thanks

Question is, what looks at SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE.
I think it's tested when packet is transmitted,
but there is no guarantee here any packet will
ever be transmitted.


Well, actually, I do plan to disable vq polling from the beginning. But looks like you do not want this:
