Subject: [RFC v1 0/6] virtio/vsock: introduce SOCK_DGRAM support

This patchset implements support of SOCK_DGRAM for virtio
transport.

Datagram sockets are connectionless and unreliable. To avoid unfair contention
with stream and other sockets, add two more virtqueues and
a new feature bit to indicate if those two new queues exist or not.

Dgram does not use the existing credit update mechanism for
stream sockets. When sending from the guest/driver, sending packets 
synchronously, so the sender will get an error when the virtqueue is full.
When sending from the host/device, send packets asynchronously
because the descriptor memory belongs to the corresponding QEMU
process.

The virtio spec patch is here: 
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-virtualization/msg50027.html

For those who prefer git repo, here is the link for the linux kernel：
https://github.com/Jiang1155/linux/tree/vsock-dgram-v1

qemu patch link:
https://github.com/Jiang1155/qemu/tree/vsock-dgram-v1

To do:
1. use skb when receiving packets
2. support multiple transport
3. support mergeable rx buffer

Jiang Wang (6):
  virtio/vsock: add VIRTIO_VSOCK_F_DGRAM feature bit
  virtio/vsock: add support for virtio datagram
  vhost/vsock: add support for vhost dgram.
  vsock_test: add tests for vsock dgram
  vhost/vsock: add kconfig for vhost dgram support
  virtio/vsock: add sysfs for rx buf len for dgram
