From 53b08c4985158430fd6d035fb49443bada535210 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandru Matei alexandru.matei@uipath.com Date: Tue, 24 Oct 2023 22:17:42 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] vsock/virtio: initialize the_virtio_vsock before using VQs
Once VQs are filled with empty buffers and we kick the host, it can send connection requests. If the_virtio_vsock is not initialized before, replies are silently dropped and do not reach the host.
virtio_transport_send_pkt() can queue packets once the_virtio_vsock is set, but they won't be processed until vsock->tx_run is set to true. We queue vsock->send_pkt_work when initialization finishes to send those packets queued earlier.
