[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 18.05-RC3 0/2] net/virtio-user: support memory hotplug

[Xiao Wang <xiao.w.wang@intel.com>]

This patch set has dependency on http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/39283/
("mem: add argument to mem event callbacks").

When memory is hot-added or hot-removed, the virtio-user driver has to
notify the vhost-user backend with sending a VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE
request with the new memory map as payload. This patch set registers
a mem_event callback to help on that.

Considering some older vhost-user implementation doesn't support runtime
memory table change, e.g. DPDK 16.11, we have to pause queues explicitly
in the callback routine:
 1. disable all the active queues
 2. update memory table to vhost
 3. resume all the previous active queues
