Hi Zhiyong,

I think we can keep using is_vhost_user_by_type() to
determine the ops for dev->ops. And you just need to
add a check in the vhost-kernel case. Something like
this:

--- i/drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.c
+++ w/drivers/net/virtio/virtio_user/virtio_user_dev.c
@@ -270,6 +270,9 @@ virtio_user_dev_setup(struct virtio_user_dev *dev)
 	if (is_vhost_user_by_type(dev->path)) {
 		dev->ops = &ops_user;
 	} else {
+		if (dev->is_server)
+			return -1;
+
 		dev->ops = &ops_kernel;
 
 		dev->vhostfds = malloc(dev->max_queue_pairs * sizeof(int));


Thanks
