0a12ae4024 tools/virtio: fix build breakage
Previous commit ("virtio: add context flag to find vqs")
added a new 'context' flag to vring_new_virtqueue(), but the
corresponding API in tools/virtio/ is not updated causing
build errors due to conflicting declarations.

Bring code in tools/virtio in sync with that in kernel.

I have used 'false' for the value of the new boolean 'context'
flag as that seems to be the best way to preserve existing
behavior.

Tested with:

$ make -C tools/virtio clean all ARCH=x86

21f5eda9b8 tools/virtio/ringtest: fix run-on-all.sh for offline cpus
Since ef1b144d ("tools/virtio/ringtest: fix run-on-all.sh to work
without /dev/cpu") run-on-all.sh uses seq 0 $HOST_AFFINITY as the list
of ids of the CPUs to run the command on (assuming ids of online CPUs
are consecutive and start from 0), where $HOST_AFFINITY is the highest
CPU id in the system previously determined using lscpu.  This can fail
on systems with offline CPUs.

Instead let's use lscpu to determine the list of online CPUs.

With this done, we can kill off the now-unused ACCESS_ONCE() definition.

5da889c795 tools/virtio: fix READ_ONCE()
The virtio tools implementation of READ_ONCE() has a single parameter called
'var', but erroneously refers to 'val' for its cast, and thus won't work unless
there's a variable of the correct type that happens to be called 'var'.

Fix this with s/var/val/, making READ_ONCE() work as expected regardless.

948a8ac296 ringtest: poll for new buffers once before updating event index
Updating the event index has a memory barrier and causes more work
on the other side to actually signal the event.  It is unnecessary
if a new buffer has already appeared on the ring, so poll once before
doing the update.

The effect of this on the 0.9 ring implementation is pretty much
invisible, but on the new-style ring it provides a consistent 3%
performance improvement.

780bc7903a virtio_ring: Support DMA APIs
virtio_ring currently sends the device (usually a hypervisor)
physical addresses of its I/O buffers.  This is okay when DMA
addresses and physical addresses are the same thing, but this isn't
always the case.  For example, this never works on Xen guests, and
it is likely to fail if a physical "virtio" device ever ends up
behind an IOMMU or swiotlb.

The immediate use case for me is to enable virtio on Xen guests.
For that to work, we need vring to support DMA address translation
as well as a corresponding change to virtio_pci or to another
driver.

481eaec37e tools/virtio: add ringtest utilities
This adds micro-benchmarks useful for tuning virtio ring layouts.
Three layouts are currently implemented:

- virtio 0.9 compatible one
- an experimental extension bypassing the ring index, polling ring
  itself instead
- an experimental extension bypassing avail and used ring completely

Typical use:

sh run-on-all.sh perf stat -r 10 --log-fd 1 -- ./ring

It doesn't depend on the kernel directly, but it's handy
to have as much virtio stuff as possible in one tree.

46f9c2b925 virtio_ring: change host notification API
Currently a host kick error is silently ignored and not reflected in
the virtqueue of a particular virtio device.

Changing the notify API for guest->host notification seems to be one
prerequisite in order to be able to handle such errors in the context
where the kick is triggered.

This patch changes the notify API. The notify function must return a
bool return value. It returns false if the host notification failed.

e538ebaf78 tools/virtio: make vringh_test use inbuf/outbuf.
As expected, the simplified accessors are faster.

13816c768d virtio_ring: virtqueue_add_sgs, to add multiple sgs.
virtio_scsi can really use this, to avoid the current hack of copying
the whole sg array.  Some other things get slightly neater, too.

This causes a slowdown in virtqueue_add_buf(), which is implemented as
a wrapper.  This is addressed in the next patches.

1515c5ce26 tools/virtio: add vring_test.
This is mainly to test the drivers/vhost/vringh.c code, but it also
uses the drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c code for the guest side.

Usage for testing the basic implementation:

	./vringh_test
	# Test with indirect descriptors
	./vringh_test --indirect
	# Test with indirect descriptors and event indexex
	./vringh_test --indirect --eventidx

You can run a parallel stress test by adding --parallel to any of the
above options.

eg ./vringh_test --parallel:
	Using CPUS 0 and 3
	Guest: notified 10107974, pinged 107970
	Host: notified 108158, pinged 3172148

./vringh_test --indirect --eventidx --parallel:
	Using CPUS 0 and 3
	Guest: notified 156357, pinged 156251
	Host: notified 156251, pinged 78179

Average of 50 times doing ./vringh_test --indirect --eventidx --parallel:
	2.840000-3.040000(2.927292)user
