Get last_avail/last_used of the vhost virtqueue

This function is designed for the reconnection and it's specific for the packed ring as we can get the two parameters from the inflight queueregion

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
queue_id	vhost queue index
last_avail_idx	vhost last_avail_idx to get
last_used_idx	vhost last_used_idx to get

Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure

Examples: examples/vhost_blk/vhost_blk.c.

◆ rte_vhost_set_vring_base()

int rte_vhost_set_vring_base	(	int	vid,
		uint16_t	queue_id,
		uint16_t	last_avail_idx,
		uint16_t	last_used_idx
	)

Set last_avail/used_idx of the vhost virtqueue

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
queue_id	vhost queue index
last_avail_idx	last_avail_idx to set
last_used_idx	last_used_idx to set

Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure

Examples: examples/vhost_blk/vhost_blk.c.

◆ rte_vhost_extern_callback_register()

int rte_vhost_extern_callback_register	(	int	vid,
		struct rte_vhost_user_extern_ops const *const	ops,
		void *	ctx
	)

Register external message handling callbacks

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
ops	virtio external callbacks to register
ctx	additional context passed to the callbacks

Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure

Examples: examples/vhost_blk/vhost_blk_compat.c.

◆ rte_vhost_get_vdpa_device()

struct rte_vdpa_device * rte_vhost_get_vdpa_device ( int vid )

Get vdpa device id for vhost device.

Parameters

vid	vhost device id

Returns: vDPA device pointer on success, NULL on failure

◆ rte_vhost_slave_config_change()

__rte_experimental int rte_vhost_slave_config_change	(	int	vid,
		bool	need_reply
	)

Notify the guest that should get virtio configuration space from backend.

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
need_reply	wait for the master response the status of this operation

Returns: 0 on success, < 0 on failure

◆ rte_vhost_vring_stats_get_names()

int rte_vhost_vring_stats_get_names	(	int	vid,
		uint16_t	queue_id,
		struct rte_vhost_stat_name *	name,
		unsigned int	size
	)

Retrieve names of statistics of a Vhost virtqueue.

There is an assumption that 'stat_names' and 'stats' arrays are matched by array index: stats_names[i].name => stats[i].value

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
queue_id	vhost queue index
name	array of at least size elements to be filled. If set to NULL, the function returns the required number of elements.
size	The number of elements in stats_names array.

Returns

Success if greater than 0 and lower or equal to size. The return value indicates the number of elements filled in the names array.
Failure if greater than size. The return value indicates the number of elements the names array that should be given to succeed.
Failure if lower than 0. The device ID or queue ID is invalid or

statistics collection is not enabled.

◆ rte_vhost_vring_stats_get()

int rte_vhost_vring_stats_get	(	int	vid,
		uint16_t	queue_id,
		struct rte_vhost_stat *	stats,
		unsigned int	n
	)

Retrieve statistics of a Vhost virtqueue.

There is an assumption that 'stat_names' and 'stats' arrays are matched by array index: stats_names[i].name => stats[i].value

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
queue_id	vhost queue index
stats	A pointer to a table of structure of type rte_vhost_stat to be filled with virtqueue statistics ids and values.
n	The number of elements in stats array.

Returns

Success if greater than 0 and lower or equal to n. The return value indicates the number of elements filled in the stats array.
Failure if greater than n. The return value indicates the number of elements the stats array that should be given to succeed.
Failure if lower than 0. The device ID or queue ID is invalid, or statistics collection is not enabled.

◆ rte_vhost_vring_stats_reset()

int rte_vhost_vring_stats_reset	(	int	vid,
		uint16_t	queue_id
	)

Reset statistics of a Vhost virtqueue.

Parameters

vid	vhost device ID
queue_id	vhost queue index

Returns

Success if 0. Statistics have been reset.
Failure if lower than 0. The device ID or queue ID is invalid, or statistics collection is not enabled.
