vDPA network devices allow high-performance networking in a virtual machine by
providing a wire-speed data path. These devices require a vendor-specific host
driver but the data path follows the virtio specification.
The support for vDPA devices was recently added to qemu. This allows
libvirt to support these devices. This patchset requires that the device is
configured on the host with the appropriate vendor-specific driver. This will
create a chardev on the host at e.g. /dev/vhost-vdpa-0. That chardev path can
then be used to define a new interface with type=3D'vdpa'.
Note that in order for hot-unplug to work properly, you may need to apply a
qemu patch[1] for now. Without the patch, qemu will not close the fd properly
and any subsequent attempts to use the vdpa chardev will fail like this:
virsh # attach-device guest1 vdpa.xml
error: Failed to attach device from vdpa.xml

Changes in v5:
- rebased to latest master
- fixed a case where qemuDomainObjExitMonitor() was not called on an error p=

- Improved the nodedev xml. It now includes the path to the chardev in /dev
- also updated the nodedev xml schema
- added sample nodedev-dumpxml output to the commit message of patch #6
Jonathon Jongsma (6):
conf: Add support for vDPA network devices
qemu: add vhost-vdpa capability
qemu: add vdpa support
qemu: add monitor functions for handling file descriptors
qemu: support hotplug of vdpa devices
Include vdpa devices in node device list

For patch 6 (the nodedev XML additions) I'm holding off on that in case
anyone has an opinion on changes that should be made there (you had
expressed some concern about it in IRC) (HINT HINT!!! ANY TAKERS?)
I've done CI testing with all the patches, and am pushing 1-5 now, which
will hopefully encourage wider testing among people with real hardware
that's capable of VDPA.
