When a change of memory map occurs, the hardware resources are destroyed
and then re-created again with the new memory map. In such case, we need
to restore the hardware available and used indices. The driver failed to
restore the used index which is added here.

Also, since the driver also fails to reset the available and used
indices upon device reset, fix this here to avoid regression caused by
the fact that used index may not be zero upon device reset.

The clearing looks fine at the first glance, as it aligns with the other state cleanups floating around at the same place. However, the thing is get_vq_state() is supposed to be called right after to get sync'ed with the latest internal avail_index from device while vq is stopped. The index was saved in the driver software at vq suspension, but before the virtq object is destroyed. We shouldn't clear the avail_index too early.


Good point.

There's a limitation on the virtio spec and vDPA framework that we can not simply differ device suspending from device reset.

Need to think about that. I suggest a new state in [1], the issue is that people doesn't like the asynchronous API that it introduces.



Possibly it can be postponed to where VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK gets set again, i.e. right before the setup_driver() in mlx5_vdpa_set_status()?


Looks like a good workaround.

Thanks
