This series introduces a new type of backend, VDUSE,
to the Vhost library.

VDUSE stands for vDPA device in Userspace, it enables
implementing a Virtio device in userspace and have it
attached to the Kernel vDPA bus.

Once attached to the vDPA bus, it can be used either by
Kernel Virtio drivers, like virtio-net in our case, via
the virtio-vdpa driver. Doing that, the device is visible
to the Kernel networking stack and is exposed to userspace
as a regular netdev.

It can also be exposed to userspace thanks to the
vhost-vdpa driver, via a vhost-vdpa chardev that can be
passed to QEMU or Virtio-user PMD.

While VDUSE support is already available in upstream
Kernel, a couple of patches are required to support
network device type:

https://gitlab.com/mcoquelin/linux/-/tree/vduse_networking_poc

In order to attach the created VDUSE device to the vDPA
bus, a recent iproute2 version containing the vdpa tool is
required.

Usage:
======

1. Probe required Kernel modules
# modprobe vdpa
# modprobe vduse
# modprobe virtio-vdpa

2. Build (require vduse kernel headers to be available)
# meson build
# ninja -C build

3. Create a VDUSE device (vduse0) using Vhost PMD with
testpmd (with 4 queue pairs in this example)
# ./build/app/dpdk-testpmd --no-pci --vdev=net_vhost0,iface=/dev/vduse/vduse0,queues=4 --log-level=*:9  -- -i --txq=4 --rxq=4
 
4. Attach the VDUSE device to the vDPA bus
# vdpa dev add name vduse0 mgmtdev vduse
=> The virtio-net netdev shows up (eth0 here)
# ip l show eth0
21: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether c2:73:ea:a7:68:6d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

5. Start/stop traffic in testpmd
testpmd> start
testpmd> show port stats 0
  ######################## NIC statistics for port 0  ########################
  RX-packets: 11         RX-missed: 0          RX-bytes:  1482
  RX-errors: 0
  RX-nombuf:  0
  TX-packets: 1          TX-errors: 0          TX-bytes:  62

  Throughput (since last show)
  Rx-pps:            0          Rx-bps:            0
  Tx-pps:            0          Tx-bps:            0
  ############################################################################
testpmd> stop

6. Detach the VDUSE device from the vDPA bus
# vdpa dev del vduse0

7. Quit testpmd
testpmd> quit

Known issues & remaining work:
==============================
- Fix issue in FD manager (still polling while FD has been removed)
- Add Netlink support in Vhost library
- Support device reconnection
- Support packed ring
- Enable & test more Virtio features
- Provide performance benchmark results
