This crate contains up to date definition of the Queue, AvailIter,
DescriptorChain and Descriptor structures forked from the upstream
crate rust-vmm/vm-virtio 27b18af01ee2d9564626e084a758a2b496d2c618.
The following patches have been applied on top of this base in order to
make it work correctly with Cloud Hypervisor requirements:
- Add MSI vector field to the Queue
In order to help with MSI/MSI-X support, it is convenient to store the
value of the interrupt vector inside the Queue directly.
- Handle address translations
For devices with access to data in memory being translated, we add to
the Queue the ability to translate the address stored in the
descriptor.
It is very helpful as it performs the translation right after the
untranslated address is read from memory, avoiding any errors from
happening from the consumer's crate perspective. It also allows the
consumer to reduce greatly the amount of duplicated code for applying
the translation in many different places.
- Add helpers for Queue structure
They are meant to help crate's consumers getting/setting information
about the Queue.
These patches can be found on the 'ch' branch from the Cloud Hypervisor
fork: https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/vm-virtio.git
This patch takes care of updating the Cloud Hypervisor code in
virtio-devices and vm-virtio to build correctly with the latest version
of virtio-queue.

Relying on the vm-virtio/virtio-queue crate from rust-vmm which has been
copied inside the Cloud Hypervisor tree, the entire codebase is moved to
the new definition of a Queue and other related structures.
The reason for this move is to follow the upstream until we get some
agreement for the patches that we need on top of that to make it
properly work with Cloud Hypervisor.

Instead of running the generic block fuzzer with QCOW, it's better to
use a RAW file since it's less complex and it will focus on virtqueues.

Now that BlockIoUring is the only implementation of virtio-block,
handling both synchronous and asynchronous backends based on the
AsyncIo trait, we can rename it to Block.

Now that both synchronous and asynchronous backends rely on the
asynchronous version of virtio-block (namely BlockIoUring), we can
get rid of the synchronous version (namely Block).

This patch adds two required dependencies to fuzz/Cargo.toml, and fixes
the building error on the 'block' fuzzer.
