vmsilo fork of vhost rust libraries

The vhost-device devices all call VhostUserDaemon::serve in a loop, to handle reconnections. This is not ideal, because a new listener is created each loop iteration, which means that each time, the old socket is unlinked and a new one is created. This means that there's a potential race where a frontend attempts to connect to the backend before the new socket is created. A more robust way to achieve this would be to have the devices create their own listeners, and pass the same one to VhostUserDaemon::start on each loop iteration, instead of letting VhostUserDaemon::serve create it repeatedly. This was not previously possible though, because VhostUserDaemon::start consumed the listener, even though it didn't need to. Because it's now possible to call VhostUserDaemon::start multiple times with the same socket, I've removed the TODO about handling reconnection. Signed-off-by: Alyssa Ross <hi@alyssa.is> |

vhost
The vhost workspace hosts libraries related to the vhost and vhost-user
protocols. It currently consists of the following crates:
vhost-> A pure rust library for vDPA, vhost and vhost-user.vhost-user-backend-> It provides a framework to implementvhost-userbackend services.
