Attempt to turn on vhost-net mode for devices of type NETWORK, BRIDGE,
and DIRECT (macvtap).
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: add vhostfd to qemuBuildHostNetStr prototype
add qemudOpenVhostNet prototype new flag to set when :,vhost=" found in
qemu help
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: * set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_VNET_HOST is ",vhost=" found
in qemu help
- qemudOpenVhostNet - opens /dev/vhost-net to pass to qemu if everything
is in place to use it.
- qemuBuildHostNetStr - add vhostfd to commandline if it's not empty
(higher levels decide whether or not to fill it in)
- qemudBuildCommandLine - if /dev/vhost-net is successfully opened, add
its fd to tapfds array so it isn't closed on qemu exec, and populate
vhostfd_name to be passed in to commandline builder.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: add filler 0 for new arg to qemuBuildHostNetStr,
along with a note that this must be implemented in order for hot-plug of
vhost-net virtio devices to work properly (once qemu "netdev_add" monitor
command is implemented).
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
