A new ClearLinux image has been uploaded to the Azure storage account.
It is based off of the ClearLinux cloudguest image 31310 version, with
two extra bundles added to it.
First bundle is sysadmin-basic to include utility like netcat, and the
second bundle is iperf, adding the iperf binary to the image.
The image is 2G in size.

When VFIO devices are created and if the device is attached to the
virtual IOMMU, the ExternalDmaMapping trait implementation is created
and associated with the device. The idea is to build a hash map of
device IDs with their associated trait implementation.
This hash map is provided to the virtual IOMMU device so that it knows
how to properly trigger external mappings associated with VFIO devices.

Having the virtual IOMMU created with --iommu is one thing, but we also
need a way to decide if a VFIO device should be attached to the virtual
IOMMU or not. That's why we introduce an extra option "iommu" with the
value "on" or "off". By default, the device is not attached, which means
"iommu=off".

Because the L2 VM running in the VFIO integration test is actually
running as L3 (since the CI runs in a VM), it can take quite some
time for this VM to boot.
The way to solve this issue is to extend the sleep time before to try
communicating with the L2 VM, but also to speed up the boot time by
using virtio-console instead of serial. We suspect the use of serial,
implying PIO VM exits for each character on the serial port is quite
expensive compared to the paravirtualized console.

We use the serde crate to serialize and deserialize the VmVConfig
structure. This structure will be passed from the HTTP API caller as a

The kernel path was the only mandatory command line option.
With the addition of the --api-socket option, we can run without a
kernel path and get it later through the API.
Since we can end up with VM configurations that are no longer valid by
default, we need to provide a validation check for it. For now, if the
kernel path is not defined, the VM configuration is invalid.

With the API server socket option, we will be able to support a model
where the user can start cloud-hypervisor with no options or an
alternative API server socket path. In this case, we don't want to try
to start a new guest VM, and for that we need to know if the user has
set any VM configuration at all. Grouping all VM configuration specific
options together is one way to be able to know about it.
If the user has not set any VM configuration, we only start the API
server. If it has set anything, we will verify that the overall
configuration is valid and will implicitly convert that configuration
into a request to the API server.

Unlike the Vmm structure we removed with commit bdfd1a3f, this new one
is really meant to represent the VM monitoring/management object.
For that, we implement a control loop that will replace the one that's
currently embedded within the Vm structure itself.
This will allow us to decouple the VM lifecycle management from the VM
object itself, by having a constantly running VMM control loop.
Besides the VM specific events (exit, reset, stdin for now), the VMM
control loop also handles all the Cloud Hypervisor IPC requests.

testing to try VMs that use a large amount of RAM.

The default number of MSI-X vector allocated was 2, which is the minimum
defined by the virtio specification. The reason for this minimum is that
virtio needs at least one interrupt to signal that configuration changed
and at least one to specify something happened regarding the virtqueues.
But this current implementation is not optimal because our VMM supports
as many MSI-X vectors as allowed by the MSI-X specification (2048 max).
For that reason, the current patch relies on the number of virtqueues
needed by the virtio device to determine the right amount of MSI-X
vectors needed. It's important not to forget the dedicated vector for
any configuration change too.
