v2: * Add libvhost-user VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES patch to start reporting feature bits correctly (already reviewed by Marc-André Lureau) * Rephrase doc comments and drop vhost_get_default_features() [Jason] * Simplify hw/core/machine.c compat props by setting packed=off on the virtio-dev base class [Jason]
The VIRTIO 1.1 packed virtqueue layout improves performance and guest driver support has been available since Linux v5.0. virtio-blk benchmarks show it is beneficial for non-net devices too so I wrote patches to enable it for all devices. It turned out to be trickier than I expected because vhost feature negotiation is currently not ready for new virtqueue feature bits like VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED. Patch 1 fixes libqos. Patch 2 fixes libvhost-user. Patch 3 adds clarifications to the vhost-user specification. Patches 4-6 solve the vhost feature issues in QEMU. Finally, Patch 6 enables packed virtqueues.
