Hi Bobby,

Add support for sockmap to vsock.

We're testing usage of vsock as a way to redirect guest-local UDS requests to
the host and this patch series greatly improves the performance of such a
setup.

Compared to copying packets via userspace, this improves throughput by 221% in
basic testing.

Cool, nice series!


Tested as follows.

Setup: guest unix dgram sender -> guest vsock redirector -> host vsock server
Threads: 1
Payload: 64k
No sockmap:
- 76.3 MB/s
- The guest vsock redirector was
 "socat VSOCK-CONNECT:2:1234 UNIX-RECV:/path/to/sock"
Using sockmap (this patch):
- 168.8 MB/s (+221%)

Assuming the absolute value is correct, there is a typo here, it would be +121% right?

- The guest redirector was a simple sockmap echo server,
 redirecting unix ingress to vsock 2:1234 egress.
- Same sender and server programs

Only the virtio transport has been tested.

I think is fine for now.

The loopback transport was used in
writing bpf/selftests, but not thoroughly tested otherwise.

I did a quick review mainly for vsock stuff.
Hoping others can take a better look at net/vmw_vsock/vsock_bpf.c, since I'm not very familiar with that subsystem.

FYI I will be off the next two weeks (till Feb 7) with limited internet access.

Thanks,
Stefano
