[Qemu-devel] [V4 PATCH 4/5] virtio-net: notify guest to annouce itself

[Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>]

It's hard to track all mac addresses and their usage (vlan, bondings,
ipv6) in qemu to send proper gratuitous packet. The better choice is
to let guest to send them.

So, this patch introduces a new rw config status bit of virtio-net,
VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE which is used to notify guest to announce
presence of its link through config update interrupt. When gust have
done the announcement, it should clear that bit. The feature is negotiated by
a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_ANNOUNCE.
