Hello Xie,

As promized I integrated your vhost-user patchset from january in my vswitch.

I just tried it, it works pretty well.

I just had a minor bug with rte_vhost_driver_register taking ownership of the
string patch pointer too late. I freed it out of habit just after registering in the
caller and when ifname[IFNAMESIZ] was written the pointer was used for a new string I
allocated later. Maybe an early strdup() would fix this.

The last patch of your new version is really a great idea since it will
simplify a lot the socket creation and management code.

Best regards

Benoît
