message replies. Most of the requests don't require replies. Here is a list of

the ones that do:



 * VHOST_GET_FEATURES

 * VHOST_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES

 * VHOST_GET_VRING_BASE

 * VHOST_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)

 * VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES

 * VHOST_USER_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES

 * VHOST_USER_GET_VRING_BASE

 * VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)



[ Also see the section on REPLY_ACK protocol extension. ]



There are several messages that the master sends with file descriptors passed

in the ancillary data:



 * VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE

 * VHOST_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)

 * VHOST_SET_LOG_FD

 * VHOST_SET_VRING_KICK

 * VHOST_SET_VRING_CALL

 * VHOST_SET_VRING_ERR

 * VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE

 * VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE (if VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD)

 * VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_FD

 * VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_KICK

 * VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL

 * VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ERR



If Master is unable to send the full message or receives a wrong reply it will

close the connection. An optional reconnection mechanism can be implemented.
