Is it better to set first_desc to zero here?

So unfetch_descs() has decreased last_avail_idx.

Can we fix this by letting unfetch_descs() return the number and then we 
can do:

int d = unfetch_descs(vq);
vq->last_avail_idx -= (n > d) ? n - d: 0;

Thanks

That's intentional I think - we need both.

Unfetch_descs drops the descriptors in the cache that were
*not returned to caller* through get_vq_desc.

vhost_discard_vq_desc drops the ones that were returned through get_vq_desc.

Did I miss anything?

If this path is taken and vq->ndescs < vhost_vq_num_batch_descs, the
for{} in fetch_descs will never exit. Do we want to accumulate as many
buffers as possible, or to return them early? Maybe to find a proper
threshold?

(Still testing next commits)

This return needs to differentiate between fetch_desc returning 0 (in
that case, it needs to return vq->num) and fetch_descs < 0 (goto err).

(Already noted by you in different thread, but pointing here just to
not forget it).

We could count some descriptors twice, consider the case e.g we only 
cache on descriptor:

fetch_descs()
     fetch_buf()
         last_avail_idx++;

Then we want do discard it:
vhost_discard_avail_buf(1)
     unfetch_descs()
         last_avail_idx--;
     last_avail_idx -= 1;

Thanks

I don't think that happens. vhost_discard_avail_buf(1) is only called
after get vhost_get_avail_buf. vhost_get_avail_buf increments
first_desc.  unfetch_descs only counts from first_desc to ndescs.

If I'm wrong, could you show values of first_desc and ndescs in this
scenario?

You're right, fetch_descriptor could not be called directly from the 
device code.
