From 7b2e5c65f42fff7a418e2b8216e92f5e0a0c3e7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marc-Andr=C3=A9=20Lureau?= Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2016 12:24:04 +0300 Subject: contrib: add libvhost-user MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add a library to help implementing vhost-user backend (or slave). Dealing with vhost-user as an application developer isn't so easy: you have all the trouble with any protocol: validation, unix ancillary data, shared memory, eventfd, logging, and on top of that you need to deal with virtio queues, if possible efficiently. qemu test has a nice vhost-user testing application vhost-user-bridge, which implements most of vhost-user, and virtio.c which implements virtqueues manipulation. Based on these two, I tried to make a simple library, reusable for tests or development of new vhost-user scenarios.
