When a change of memory map occurs, the hardware resources are destroyed
and then re-created again with the new memory map. In such case, we need
to restore the hardware available and used indices. The driver failed to
restore the used index which is added here.

A question. Does this mean after a vq is suspended, the hw used index is
not equal to vq used index?

Surely there is just one "Used index" for a VQ. What I was trying to say
is that after the VQ is suspended, I read the used index by querying the
hardware. The read result is the used index that the hardware wrote to
memory. After the I create the new hardware object, I need to tell it
what is the used index (and the available index) as a way to sync it
with the existing VQ.
This sync is especially important when a change of map occurs while the
VQ was already used (hence the indices are likely to be non zero). This
can be triggered by hot adding memory after the VQs have been used.

Just to make sure I understand here. So it looks to me we had two index.
The first is the used index which is stored in the memory/virtqueue, the
second is the one that is stored by the device.

For avail index I understand that the hardware index is not synced with
the avail index stored in the memory/virtqueue. The question is used
index, if the hardware one is not synced with the one in the virtqueue.
It means after vq is suspended, some requests is not completed by the
hardware (e.g the buffer were not put to used ring).
This may have implications to live migration, it means those
unaccomplished requests needs to be migrated to the destination and
resubmitted to the device. This looks not easy.

It is the structures defined in the virtio spec in 2.6.6 for the
available ring and 2.6.8 for the used ring. As you know these the
available ring is written to by the driver and read by the device. The
opposite happens for the used index.
The reason I need to restore the last known indices is for the new
hardware objects to sync on the last state and take over from there.

Right, so for used index it was wrote by device. And the device should
have an internal used index value that is used to write to the used
ring. And the code is used to sync the device internal used index if I
understand this correctly.

Right, after the vq suspending, the questions are:
1) is hardware internal used index might not be the same with the used
index in the virtqueue?
or
2) can we simply sync the virtqueue's used index to the hardware's used
index?

Generally the answer is no because the hardware is the only one writing
it. New objects start up with the initial value configured to them upon
creation. This value was zero before this change.
You could argue that since the hardware has access to virtqueue memory,
it could just read the value from there but it does not.

Theoretically it could be done but that's not how the hardware works.
One reason is that is not supposed to read from that area. But it is
really hardware implementation detail.
