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:

For those who prefer git repo, here is the link for the linux kernel：

qemu patch link:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-09/msg...
To do:
1. use skb when receiving packets
2. support multiple transport
3. support mergeable rx buffer
4. support disabling F_STREAM feature bit
v1 -> v2 :
- fix migration bug in vhost-vsock
- rename some variables
- clean up some code in virtio-vsock
- use le_to_cpu16 in virtio-vsock
Jiang Wang (5):
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
virtio/vsock: add sysfs for rx buf len for dgram
