Well, what's your definition of "enable" in this context?

Spec said:

queue_enable
    The driver uses this to selectively prevent the device from
    executing requests from this virtqueue. 1 - enabled; 0 - disabled. 

This means, if queue_enable is not set to 1, device can not execute 
request for this specific virtqueue.

But in qemu this is hooked to VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, see 
peer_attach(). And this patch hook VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE to 
queue_enable.

This means IFCVF uses queue_enable instead of control vq or other 
register for setting multiqueue stuff? My understanding is that IFCVF 
has dedicated register to do this.

Note setting mq is different from queue_enable, changing the number of 
queues should let the underlayer NIC to properly configure its 
steering/switching/filtering logic to make sure traffic were only sent 
to the queues that is set by driver.

So hooking VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_VQ_PAIRS_SET to qeue_enable looks wrong.

I think we're talking about aligning the implementation with spec not 
just make it work for some specific drivers. Driver may choose to not 
enable a virtqueue by not setting 1 to queue_enable.
