From b3258ff1d6086bd2b9eeb556844a868ad7d49bc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amit Shah Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2011 19:12:10 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] virtio: Decrement avail idx on buffer detach When detaching a buffer from a vq, the avail.idx value should be decremented as well. This was noticed by hot-unplugging a virtio console port and then plugging in a new one on the same number (re-using the vqs which were just 'disowned'). qemu reported 'Guest moved used index from 0 to 256' when any IO was attempted on the new port.
