[dpdk-dev] [RFC 04/19] vhost: add support to slave requests channel

Tue Jul 4 11:49:07 CEST 2017


Currently, only QEMU sends requests, the backend sends
replies. In some cases, the backend may need to send
requests to QEMU, like IOTLB miss events when IOMMU is
supported.

This patch introduces a new channel for such requests.
QEMU sends a file descriptor of a new socket using
VHOST_USER_SET_SLAVE_REQ_FD.
