I am ok to have one more event type.

BTW, I have questions about numa_node.
I guess "rte_eth_dev_socket_id()" can only return numa_node of specified
port.
If multiple queues are used in one device(port), can we say all queues
are always in same numa_node?

If the answer is no, I am still not sure we can remove "struct
virtio_net" from DPDK application callback handling.
I agree we can add RTE_ETH_EVENT_QUEUE_STATE_CHANGE for interrupt notice.
But current ethdev APIs may not be able to hide vhost specific
properties, then the callback hander needs to handle "struct virtio_net"
directly.

Thanks,
Tetsuya
