    "content": "Currently, we reset all fields of a device to zero when reset\nhappens, which is wrong, since for some fields like device_fh,\nifname, and virt_qp_nb, they should be same and be kept after\nreset until the device is removed. And this is what's the new\nhelper function reset_device() for.\n\nAnd use rte_zmalloc() instead of rte_malloc, so that we could\navoid init_device(), which basically dose zero reset only so far.\nHence, init_device() is dropped in this patch.\n\nThis patch also removes a hack of using the offset a specific\nfield (which is virtqueue now) inside of `virtio_net' structure\nto do reset, which could be broken easily if someone changed the\nfield order without caution.\n\nCc: Tetsuya Mukawa <mukawa@igel.co.jp>\nCc: Xie Huawei <huawei.xie@intel.com>\nSigned-off-by: Yuanhan Liu <yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com>\n\n---\n\nThis patch is based on:\n\nhttp://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/8818/\n---\n lib/librte_vhost/virtio-net.c | 27 ++++++++++-----------------\n 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-)",
