From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lur...@redhat.com> This patch is a similar solution to what Yuanhan Liu/Huawei Xie have suggested for DPDK. When vubr quits (killed or crashed), a restart of vubr would get stale vring base from QEMU. That would break the kernel virtio net completely, making it non-work any more, unless a driver reset is done.
So, instead of getting the stale vring base from QEMU, Huawei suggested we could get a proper one from used->idx. This works because the queues packets are processed in order.
