Intel MIC Card Driver Changes for Virtio Devices.
This patch introduces the card "Virtio over PCIe" interface for Intel MIC. It allows virtio drivers on the card to communicate with their user space backends on the host via a device page. Ring 3 apps on the host can add, remove and configure virtio devices. A thin MIC specific virtio_config_ops is implemented which is borrowed heavily from previous similar implementations in lguest and s390 @ drivers/lguest/lguest_device.c drivers/s390/kvm/kvm_virtio.c Co-author: Sudeep Dutt <sudeep.dutt@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ashutosh Dixit <ashutosh.dixit@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Caz Yokoyama <Caz.Yokoyama@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dasaratharaman Chandramouli <dasaratharaman.chandramouli@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Nikhil Rao <nikhil.rao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Harshavardhan R Kharche <harshavardhan.r.kharche@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Sudeep Dutt <sudeep.dutt@intel.com> Acked-by: Yaozu (Eddie) Dong <eddie.dong@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
