e817aa6824 tests: Improve VM shutdown behaviour
Many of the tests attempted to SSH into the VM and then run "shutdown"
but don't actually check that the VM has shutdown correctly and proceed
to kill the child process. Remove the associated SSH commands and sleeps
from those tests that are not explicitly checking the shutdown
behaviour.

8142c823ed vmm: Move DeviceManager into an Arc<Mutex<>>
In anticipation of the support for device hotplug, this commit moves the
DeviceManager object into an Arc<Mutex<>> when the DeviceManager is
being created. The reason is, we need the DeviceManager to implement the
BusDevice trait and then provide it to the IO bus, so that IO accesses
related to device hotplug can be handled correctly.

e52129efb4 vhost_user_fs: Process events from HIPRIO queue
We weren't processing events arriving at the HIPRIO queue, which
implied ignoring FUSE_INTERRUPT, FUSE_FORGET, and FUSE_BATCH_FORGET
requests.

One effect of this issue was that file descriptors weren't closed on
the server, so it eventually hits RLIMIT_NOFILE. Additionally, the
guest OS may hang while attempting to unmount the filesystem.

42937c9754 vm-virtio: Add support for indirect descriptors
Indirect descriptors is a virtio feature that allows the driver to
store a table of descriptors anywhere in memory, pointing to it from a
virtqueue ring's descriptor with a particular flag.

We can't seamlessly transition from an iterator over a conventional
descriptor chain to an indirect chain, so Queue users need to
explicitly support this feature by calling Queue::is_indirect() and
Queue::new_from_indirect().

b77fdeba2d msi/msi-x: Prevent from losing masked interrupts
We want to prevent from losing interrupts while they are masked. The
way they can be lost is due to the internals of how they are connected
through KVM. An eventfd is registered to a specific GSI, and then a
route is associated with this same GSI.

The current code adds/removes a route whenever a mask/unmask action
happens. Problem with this approach, KVM will consume the eventfd but
it won't be able to find an associated route and eventually it won't
be able to deliver the interrupt.

That's why this patch introduces a different way of masking/unmasking
the interrupts, simply by registering/unregistering the eventfd with the
GSI. This way, when the vector is masked, the eventfd is going to be
written but nothing will happen because KVM won't consume the event.
Whenever the unmask happens, the eventfd will be registered with a
specific GSI, and if there's some pending events, KVM will trigger them,
based on the route associated with the GSI.

d2f1749edb vmm: config: Add poll_queue property to DiskConfig
Recently, vhost_user_block gained the ability of actively polling the
queue, a feature that can be disabled with the poll_queue property.

This change adds this property to DiskConfig, so it can be used
through the "disk" argument.

For the moment, it can only be used when vhost_user=true, but this
will change once virtio-block gets the poll_queue feature too.

ed1e7817cc vmm: Workaround double reboot triggered by the kernel
The kernel does not adhere to the ACPI specification (probably to work
around broken hardware) and rather than busy looping after requesting an
ACPI reset it will attempt to reset by other mechanisms (such as i8042
reset.)

In order to trigger a reset the devices write to an EventFd (called
reset_evt.) This is used by the VMM to identify if a reset is requested
and make the VM reboot. As the reset_evt is part of the VMM and reused
for both the old and new VM it is possible for the newly booted VM to
immediately get reset as there is an old event sitting in the EventFd.

The simplest solution is to "drain" the reset_evt EventFd on reboot to
make sure that there is no spurious events in the EventFd.

5c06b7f862 vhost_user_block: Implement optional static polling
Actively polling the virtqueue significantly reduces the latency of
each I/O operation, at the expense of using more CPU time. This
features is specially useful when using low-latency devices (SSD,
NVMe) as the backend.

This change implements static polling. When a request arrives after
being idle, vhost_user_block will keep checking the virtqueue for new
requests, until POLL_QUEUE_US (50us) has passed without finding one.

POLL_QUEUE_US is defined to be 50us, based on the current latency of
enterprise SSDs (< 30us) and the overhead of the emulation.

This feature is enabled by default, and can be disabled by using the
"poll_queue" parameter of "block-backend".

This is a test using null_blk as a backend for the image, with the
following parameters:

 - null_blk gb=20 nr_devices=1 irqmode=2 completion_nsec=0 no_sched=1

0e4e27ea9d vhost_user_block: Make use of the EVENT_IDX feature
Now that vhost_user_backend and vm-virtio do support EVENT_IDX, use it
in vhost_user_block to reduce the number of notifications sent between
the driver and the device.

This is specially useful when using active polling on the virtqueue,
as it'll be implemented by a future patch.

This is a snapshot of kvm_stat while generating ~60K IOPS with fio on
the guest without EVENT_IDX:

 Event                                         Total %Total CurAvg/s

It can be clearly appreciated how the number of vm exits per second,
specially the ones related to notifications (kvm_fast_mmio and
kvm_msi_set_irq) is drastically lower.

d17fa784bc vm-virtio: Implement support for EVENT_IDX
VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX is a virtio feature that allows to avoid
device <-> driver notifications under some circunstances, most
notably when actively polling the queue.

This commit implements support for in in the vm-virtio
crate. Consumers of this crate will also need to add support for it by
exposing the feature and calling using update_avail_event() and
get_used_event() accordingly.
