vhost: restore avail index from vring used index on disconnection
vhost_virtqueue_stop() gets avail index value from the backend, except if the backend is not responding. It happens when the backend crashes, and in this case, internal state of the virtio queue is inconsistent, making packets to corrupt the vring state. With a Linux guest, it results in following error message on backend reconnection: [ 22.444905] virtio_net virtio0: output.0:id 0 is not a head! [ 22.446746] net enp0s3: Unexpected TXQ (0) queue failure: -5 [ 22.476360] net enp0s3: Unexpected TXQ (0) queue failure: -5 Fixes: 283e2c2adcb8 ("net: virtio-net discards TX data after link down") Cc: qemu-stable@nongnu.org Signed-off-by: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S.
