Refactor code to make sure features are only accessed under VQ mutex. This makes everything simpler, no need for RCU here anymore. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

Current pre-sorted memory region array has some limitations for future device IOTLB conversion: 1) need extra work for adding and removing a single region, and it's expected to be slow because of sorting or memory re-allocation. 2) need extra work of removing a large range which may intersect several regions with different size. 3) need trick for a replacement policy like LRU To

This patch tries to implement an device IOTLB for vhost. This could be used with for co-operation with userspace IOMMU implementation (qemu) for a secure DMA environment (DMAR) in guest. 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: - when there's a IOTLB miss, it will notify userspace through

OK, here is the large patchset that implements the virtio spec update that I sent earlier (the spec itself needs a minor update, will send that out too next week, but I think we are on the same page here already). It supercedes the PUBLISH_USED_IDX patches I sent out earlier. What will follow will be a patchset that actually includes 4 sets of patches. I note below their status. Please consider
