Hello Michael,

When I am testing deferring skb allocation patch, I found this problem.
Simply removing and reloading guest virtio_net module would cause guest
exit with errors. It is easy to reproduce it:

[root@localhost ~]# rmmod virtio_net

[root@localhost ~]# modprobe virtio_net

vhost_net_init returned -17

Any idea?

Thanks
Shirley
