2014-07-18vhost-user: Fix VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE processingNikolay Nikolaev
qemu_get_ram_fd doesn't accept a guest physical address. ram_addr_t are opaque values that are assigned in qemu_ram_alloc. Find the ram_addr_t corresponding to the userspace_addr using qemu_ram_addr_from_host, and then call qemu_get_ram_fd on it.

2014-06-29vhost-user: fix regions provied with VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE messageDamjan Marion
Old code was affected by memory gaps which resulted in buffer pointers pointing to address outside of the mapped regions. Here we are introducing following changes: - new function qemu_get_ram_block_host_ptr() returns host pointer to the ram block, it is needed to calculate offset of specific region in the host memory - new field mmap_offset is added to the VhostUserMemoryRegion. It contains offset where specific region starts in the mapped memory. As there is stil no wider adoption of vhost-user agreement was made that we will not bump version number due to this change - other fileds in VhostUserMemoryRegion struct are not changed, as they are all needed for usermode app implementation - region data is not taken from ram_list.blocks anymore, instead we use region data which is alredy calculated for use in vhost-net - Now multiple regions can have same FD and user applicaton can call mmap() multiple times with the same FD but with different offset (user needs to take care for offset page alignment) Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

2014-06-19Add vhost-user as a vhost backend.Nikolay Nikolaev
The initialization takes a chardev backed by a unix domain socket. It should implement qemu_fe_set_msgfds in order to be able to pass file descriptors to the remote process. Each ioctl request of vhost-kernel has a vhost-user message equivalent, which is sent over the control socket. The general approach is to copy the data from the supplied argument pointer to a designated field in the message. If a file descriptor is to be passed it will be placed in the fds array for inclusion in the sendmsg control header. VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE ignores the supplied vhost_memory structure and scans the global ram_list for ram blocks with a valid fd field set. This would be set when the '-object memory-file' option with share=on property is used.
