Subject: [PATCH 0/2] vhost/vsock: fix used length and cleanup in vhost_vsock_handle_tx_kick()
Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2021 17:35:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211122163525.294024-1-sgarzare@redhat.com> (raw)

This is a follow-up to Micheal's patch [1] and the discussion with Halil and
Jason [2].

I made two patches, one to fix the problem and one for cleanup. This should
simplify the backport of the fix because we've had the problem since
vhost-vsock was introduced (v4.8) and that part has been touched a bit
recently.

Thanks,
Stefano
