 Hello!

> Before you start another ovs_in_container, previous ones get killed?

 Of course. It crashes.

> If so, vhost information in ovs_on_host will be wiped as the unix socket is broken.

 Yes. And ovs_on_host crashes because:
a) ovs_in_container does not send VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE (i don't know why yet)
b) set_vring_addr() does not make sure that dev->mem is set.

 I am preparing a patch to fix (b).
