[PATCHv9 3/3] vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.
There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
migration, bug work-arounds

[RFC PATCH V2 2/2] vhost: device IOTLB API
This patch tries to implement an device IOTLB for vhost. This could be
used with for co-operation with userspace(qemu) implementation of DMA
remapping.
The idea is simple. When vhost meets an IOTLB miss, it will request
the assistance of userspace to do the translation, this is done
through:
- Fill the translation request in a preset userspace address (This
address is set through ioctl
