From a527e312b59ac382cb84af4b91f517a846f50705 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin Wolf Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2021 08:46:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vhost-user-blk: Implement reconnection during realize Commit dabefdd6 removed code that was supposed to try reconnecting during .realize(), but actually just crashed and had several design problems. This adds the feature back without the crash in simple cases while also fixing some design problems: Reconnection is now only tried if there was a problem with the connection and not an error related to the content (which would fail again the same way in the next attempt). Reconnection is limited to three attempts (four with the initial attempt) so that we won't end up in an infinite loop if a problem is permanent. If the backend restarts three times in the very short time window of device initialisation, we have bigger problems and erroring out is the right course of action. In the case that a connection error occurs and we reconnect, the error message is printed using error_report_err(), but otherwise ignored.
