Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH RFC 0/2] vhost: numa aware allocation of virtio_net device and vhost virt queue

The virtio_net device and vhost virt queue should be allocated on the same numa node as vring descriptors.
When we firstly allocate the virtio_net device and vhost virt queue, we don't know the numa node of vring descriptors.
When we receive the VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR message, we get the numa node of vring descriptors, so we will try to reallocate virtio_net and vhost virt queue to the same numa node.

Huawei Xie (2):
  use rte_malloc/free for virtio_net and virt_queue memory data allocation/free
  When we get the address of vring descriptor table, will try to reallocate virtio_net device and virtqueue to the same numa node.
