So if there is away to know > the vid before new_device() is invoked I am happy to change the sample app. I think the Vhost-crypto API should be fixed. The good news is that it is still experimental, so we can fix it without worries (BTW, except the DPDK example, are there other application using the Vhost-crypto API?). The .new_device() callback is called when the Virtio device is ready, meaning when the backend can start processing the virtqueues. So feature negotiation should have taken place before that. I'm surprised it worked before, because doesn't the features negotiation takes place before the memory table are set? If so, how can the first virtqueue can be tested as ready if the vring address is not set? One other issue here, which is triggering the issue is that given how the registration is done, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET flag is set for Vhost-crypto, which shouldn't happen. Even before last release rework, you should have faced issues when more than 2 queues where in used: static int vhost_user_set_features(struct virtio_net **pdev, struct VhostUserMsg *msg, int main_fd __rte_unused) { ... if ((dev->flags & VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET) && !(dev->features & (1ULL << VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ))) { /* * Remove all but first queue pair if MQ hasn't been * negotiated. This is safe because the device is not * running at this stage. */ while (dev->nr_vring > 2) { struct vhost_virtqueue *vq; vq = dev->virtqueue[--dev->nr_vring]; if (!vq) continue; dev->virtqueue[dev->nr_vring] = NULL; cleanup_vq(vq, 1); cleanup_vq_inflight(dev, vq); free_vq(dev, vq); } } As VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ is never negotiated with crypto devices, it means you can not have more than two queues. >> >> Indeed, we cannot consider the device to be ready (and so call >> .new_device callback) if features haven't been negotiated. >> >> I agree, rte_vhost_driver_set_features() has to be called before >> .new_device(), and that's the reason why it takes socket's path and not >> vid as input. > > Different than vhost_blk, vhost_crypto lies in the library and needs to be > able to be treated evenly as virtio_net.

OK, so we are aligned, we need to find a proper solution. I think you need a specific driver start function that does not set VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET. First we can change that VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_VIRTIO_NET flag by a new field in the device without breaking the API: enum virtio_backend_type { VIRTIO_DEV_UNKNOWN = 0, /* Likely external */ VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_NET, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_CRYPTO, }; struct virtio_net { ... enum virtio_backend_type type; }; Then, introduce a new API to start crypto backend that would be called instead of rte_vhost_driver_start(): int rte_vhost_crypto_driver_start(const char *path) { return vhost_driver_start(path, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_CRYPTO); } int rte_vhost_driver_start(const char *path) { return vhost_driver_start(path, VIRTIO_DEV_BUILTIN_NET); } And then propagate the info down to vhost_new_device(). Does that make sense? Note that issue has been reported during v20.11 cycle was it was introduced in v20.08. It means it has not been tested. Does Intel QE has some Vhost crypto tests?
