I've always found this confusing too. Maybe a vhost-user spec
clarification would help improve the situation at least for future
vhost-user backend implementors.

libvhost-user only advertises VHOST_F_LOG_ALL and
VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES. Everything else is left up to the device
backend implementation. This is a problem because libvhost-user handles
virtqueues and needs to be aware of VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX, etc. I'll
send a separate patch to advertise the necessary feature bits in
libvhost-user.

QEMU calculates the VIRTIO device's feature bit masks as follows:

1. -device vhost-foo initializes the device features with whatever QEMU
   supports. Either the QEMU vhost-foo code itself sets features or the
   user overrides them on the command-line.

2. Some vhost devices in QEMU call vhost_get_features() to mask out
   features missing from the VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES response. This is
   how the vhost-user backend participates in feature negotiation.

This patch series changes moves us one step in the direction of always
involving the vhost-user backend in feature negotiation. It's only a
step because to do so fully would break existing vhost-user backends
that don't advertise features properly :(.
