[virtio-dev] [PATCH v4 0/5] introduce virtio vhost-user backend device type

[Nikos Dragazis <ndragazis@arrikto.com>]

Hi everyone,

this PATCH presents an updated version of the RFC virtio device spec for
the virtio-vhost-user device. The initial RFC implementation can be
found here: [1].

In this fourth version of the patch series I have added comformance
targets for the virtio-vhost-user device via a separate commit. I have
also updated the link for the vhost-user protocol specification located
in QEMU's git repo, since it has been reformatted from plain text into
restructured text.

v4 changes:
 * Add comformance targets for the virtio-vhost-user device.
 * Update the reference link for the vhost-user protocol specification.

v3 changes:
 * Device Requirements for the Notification Capability: point out the
   difference between the MSI-X Table Size stored in the Message Control
   register of the MSI-X capability structure and the actual MSI-X Table
   Size

v2 changes:
 * Change device id from #25 to #28

Looking forward to your comments.

Thanks,
Nikos
