Commit 14f9b664 (hw/virtio-net.c: set config size using host features) tries to
calculate config size based on the host features. But it forgets the
VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC were always set for qemu later. This will lead a zero config
len for virtio-net device when both VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS and VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ were
disabled form command line. Then qemu will crash when user tries to read the
config of virtio-net.

Fix this by counting VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC and make sure the config at least contains
the mac address.

This would be cleaner:
      host_features |= (1 << VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC);

no need for a comment then.

It seems to me that the real problem here is that host_features isn't
properly populated before virtio_net_set_config_size() is called. Looking
at virtio_device_init(), we can see why:

static int virtio_device_init(DeviceState *qdev)
{
       VirtIODevice *vdev = VIRTIO_DEVICE(qdev);
       VirtioDeviceClass *k = VIRTIO_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(qdev);
       assert(k->init != NULL);
       if (k->init(vdev) < 0) {
           return -1;
       }
       virtio_bus_plug_device(vdev);
       return 0;
}

virtio_net_set_config_size() is currently being called as part of the
k->init call, but the host_features aren't properly setup until the device
is plugged into the bus using virtio_bus_plug_device().

After talking with mdroth, I think the proper way to fix this would be to
extend VirtioDeviceClass to include a calculate_config_size() method that
can be called at the appropriate time during device initialization like so:

static int virtio_device_init(DeviceState *qdev)
{
       VirtIODevice *vdev = VIRTIO_DEVICE(qdev);
       VirtioDeviceClass *k = VIRTIO_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(qdev);
       assert(k->init != NULL);
       if (k->init(vdev) < 0) {
           return -1;
       }
       virtio_bus_plug_device(vdev);
+   if (k->calculate_config_size && k->calculate_config_size(vdev) < 0) {
+       return -1;
+   }
       return 0;
}

This would ensure that host_features contains the proper data before any
devices try to make use of it to calculate the config size.
Good point, I didn't saw that.

but this was not the case with commit 14f9b664 no?

I suspect this bug was present in 14f9b664 as well. We just hadn't triggered
it yet. I'll confirm this afternoon.
Ok, I think there is a problem with your patch:

     virtio_init(VIRTIO_DEVICE(n), "virtio-net", VIRTIO_ID_NET,
                                   n->config_size);

is called in virtio_net_device_init (k->init).

Is there a way to resize the config after that?

Nope. That's definitely a bug. I can send a patch to fix this today. Any
objection to the method suggested above (extending VirtioDeviceClass)?
This needs more thought. All devices expected everything
is setup during the init call. config size is
likely not the only issue.

So we need almost all of virtio_bus_plug_device before init,
and then after init send the signal:

     if (klass->device_plugged != NULL) {
         klass->device_plugged(qbus->parent);
     }

Seems the interesting part is in virtio_pci_device_plugged at the end:

    proxy->host_features |= 0x1 << VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY;
    proxy->host_features |= 0x1 << VIRTIO_F_BAD_FEATURE;
    proxy->host_features = virtio_bus_get_vdev_features(bus,
proxy->host_features);

This is and was called after set_config_size, isn't that the issue?



        for (i = 0; feature_sizes[i].flags != 0; i++) {
            if (host_features & feature_sizes[i].flags) {
                config_size = MAX(feature_sizes[i].end, config_size);
