In drivers/net/vhost/rte_eth_vhost.c you could find below functions:

static int
new_device(int vid)
{
	......

	eth_dev->data->dev_link.link_status = ETH_LINK_UP;

	......

	_rte_eth_dev_callback_process(eth_dev, RTE_ETH_EVENT_INTR_LSC, NULL);

	......
}

static void
destroy_device(int vid)
{
	......

	eth_dev->data->dev_link.link_status = ETH_LINK_DOWN;

	......

	_rte_eth_dev_callback_process(eth_dev, RTE_ETH_EVENT_INTR_LSC, NULL);

	......
}

They are the callbacks for vhost library.

When a frontend (e.g. QEMU) is connected to this vhost backend
and the frontend virtio device becomes ready, new_device() will
be called by the vhost library, and the link status will be
updated to UP.

And when e.g. the connection is closed, destroy_device() will be
called by the vhost library, and the link status will be updated
to DOWN.

So vhost PMD reports meaningful link status and also generates
link status events.

Thanks
