Fill the hvm_start_info and related memory map structures as

In order to properly initialize the kvm regs/sregs structs for
the guest, the load_kernel() return type must specify which
boot protocol to use with the entry point address it returns.
Make load_kernel() return an EntryPoint struct containing the
required information. This structure will later be used
in the vCPU configuration methods to setup the appropriate
initial conditions for the guest.

Extended attributes (xattr) support has a huge impact on write
performance. The reason for this is that, if enabled, FUSE sends a
setxattr request after each write operation, and due to the inode
locking inside the kernel during said request, the ability to execute
the operations in parallel becomes heavily limited.
Signed-off-by: Sergio Lopez <slp@redhat.com>
This change enables vhost_user_fs to process multiple requests in
parallel by scheduling them into a ThreadPool (from the Futures
crate).
Parallelism on a single file is limited by the nature of the operation
executed on it. A recent commit replaced the Mutex that protects the
File within HandleData with a RwLock, to allow some operations (at
this moment, only "read" and "write") to proceed in parallel by
acquiring a read lock.
A more complex approach was also implemented [1], involving
instrumentation through vhost_user_backend to be able to serialize
completions, reducing the pressure on the vring RwLock. This strategy
improved the performance on some corner cases, while making it worse
on other, more common ones. This fact, in addition to it requiring
wider changes through the source code, prompted me to drop it in favor
of this one.

"DescriptorChain"s are tied to the lifetime of the referenced
GuestMemoryMmap object (for good reasons), but sometimes (i.e., when
processing descriptors from different contexts) we may need to switch
them to point a different GuestMemoryMmap.
Here we introduce the structure DescriptorHead, which holds the data
needed to rebuild a DescriptorChain, the method "get_head" which
returns the DescriptorHead for a DescriptorChain, and the method
"new_from_head", which allows to create a new DescriptorChain with a
DescriptorHead and a new reference to a GuestMemoryMmap.

Replace HandleData's File Mutex with a RwLock to have more granularity
on the lock. This allows operations on the same File that are safe to
be run in parallel (at this moment, read and write), to acquire a read
lock to avoid waiting on each other.

By using a Vec to hold the list of devices on the PciBus, there's a
problem when we use unplug. Indeed, the vector of devices gets reduced
and if the unplugged device was not the last one from the list, every
other device after this one is shifted on the bus.
To solve this problem, a HashMap is used. This allows to keep track of
the exact place where each device stands on the bus.

This change, combined with the compiler hint to inline get_used_event,
shortens the window between the memory read and the actual check by
calling get_used_event from needs_notification.
Without it, when putting enough pressure on the vring, it's possible
that a notification is wrongly omitted, causing the queue to stall.
Signed-off-by: Sergio Lopez <slp@redhat.com>
get_used_event is used from vhost_user_backend:needs_notification to
check whether an interrupt must be sent to the guest to notify there
are new items in the queue. Shorten the update window by asking the
the compiler to inline this method, so a write won't slip between the
read of the memory contents and the actual check.

With some of the factorization that happened to be able to support VFIO
hotplug, one mistake was made. In case a vIOMMU is created through a
virtio-iommu device, and no matter the "iommu" option value from the
VFIO device parameter, the VFIO device was always placed behind the
virtual IOMMU.
This commit fixes this wrong behavior by making sure the device
configuration is taken into account to decide if it should be attached
or not to the virtual IOMMU.

Add a new id option to the VFIO hotplug command so that it matches the
VFIO coldplug semantic.
This is done by refactoring the existing code for VFIO hotplug, where
VmAddDeviceData structure is replaced by DeviceConfig. This structure is
the one used whenever a VFIO device is coldplugged, which is why it
makes sense to reuse it for the hotplug codepath.

Add the ability to specify the "id" associated with a device, by adding
an extra option to the parameter --device.
This new option is not mandatory, and by default, the VMM will take care
of finding a unique identifier.
If the identifier provided by the user through this new option is not
unique, an error will be thrown and the VM won't be started.
