[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V7 4/5] virtio-net: notify guest to annouce itself

[Jason Wang]

It's hard to track all mac addresses and their configurations (e.g vlan) in
qemu. Without those information, it's impossible to build proper garp packet
after migration. The only possible solution to this is let guest ( who knew all
configurations) to do this.

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 ack the notification through VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_ANNOUNCE_ACK cmd. This
feature is negotiated by a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_ANNOUNCE.
