This implements a virtio simulator: - adds stubs for enough support functions to compile virtio ring in userspace. - Adds a stub vhost based module this can talk to. This should help us decide things like which ring layout works best. Communication is currently done using an eventfd descriptor. This means there's a shared spinlock there: what I would like to do in the future, is run

From: Shirley Ma <mashirle at us.ibm.com> This adds experimental zero copy support in vhost-net, disabled by default. To enable, set the zerocopytx module option to 1. This patch maintains the outstanding userspace buffers in the sequence it is delivered to vhost. The outstanding userspace buffers will be marked as done once the lower device buffers DMA has finished. This is monitored

This is an update version of last version to fix the handling of polling errors in vhost/vhost_net. Currently, vhost and vhost_net ignore polling errors which can lead kernel crashing when it tries to remove itself from waitqueue after the polling failure. Fix this by checking the poll->wqh before the removing and report an error when meet polling errors. Changes from v2: - check poll->wqh

Currently, vhost-net is the only consumer of vhost infrastructure. So vhost infrastructure and vhost-net driver are in a single module. Separating this as a vhost.ko module and a vhost-net.ko module makes it is easier to share code with other vhost drivers, e.g. vhost-blk.ko, tcm-vhost.ko.

vhost-blk is an in-kernel virito-blk device accelerator. Due to lack of proper in-kernel AIO interface, this version converts guest's I/O request to bio and use submit_bio() to submit I/O directly. So this version any supports raw block device as guest's disk image, e.g. /dev/sda, /dev/ram0. We can add file based image support to vhost-blk once we have in-kernel AIO interface. There are
