In patch 23, the code to implement re-enable vq is as follows:

+static int vp_modern_enable_reset_vq(struct virtqueue *vq)
+{
+	struct virtio_pci_device *vp_dev = to_vp_device(vq->vdev);
+	struct virtio_pci_modern_device *mdev = &vp_dev->mdev;
+	struct virtio_pci_vq_info *info;
+	unsigned long flags, index;
+	int err;
+
+	if (!vq->reset)
+		return -EBUSY;
+
+	index = vq->index;
+	info = vp_dev->vqs[index];
+
+	/* check queue reset status */
+	if (vp_modern_get_queue_reset(mdev, index) != 1)
+		return -EBUSY;
+
+	err = vp_active_vq(vq, info->msix_vector);
+	if (err)
+		return err;
+
+	if (vq->callback) {
+		spin_lock_irqsave(&vp_dev->lock, flags);
+		list_add(&info->node, &vp_dev->virtqueues);
+		spin_unlock_irqrestore(&vp_dev->lock, flags);
+	} else {
+		INIT_LIST_HEAD(&info->node);
+	}
+
+	vp_modern_set_queue_enable(&vp_dev->mdev, index, true);
+
+	if (vp_dev->per_vq_vectors && info->msix_vector != VIRTIO_MSI_NO_VECTOR)
+		enable_irq(pci_irq_vector(vp_dev->pci_dev, info->msix_vector));
+
+	vq->reset = false;
+
+	return 0;
+}


There are three situations where an error will be returned. These are the
situations I want to handle.

But I'm rethinking the question, and I feel like you're right, although the
hardware setup may fail. We can no longer sync with the hardware. But using it
as a normal vq doesn't have any problems.

I think there is no need to cancel the work here, because napi_disable will wait
for the napi_enable of the resize. So if the re-enable failed vq is used as a normal
vq, this logic can be removed.

Same as above.

Yes, you are right.

Thanks.
