Blob resources are size-based containers for host, guest, or
host+guest allocations.  These resources are designed with
mulit-process 3D support in mind, but also usable in virtio-gpu 2d
with guest memory.

Many hypercalls are reused, since a image view into the blob resource
is possible.

Blob resources are both forward and backward looking.

v2: Add TRANSFER_BLOB, SET_SCANOUT_BLOB, SCANOUT_FLUSH
v3: Remove SCANOUT_FLUSH and add notes
v4: Remove TRANSFER_BLOB for now.

+
+A blob resource is a container for:
+
+  \begin{itemize*}
+  \item a guest memory allocation (referred to as a
+  "guest-only blob resource").
+  \item a host memory allocation (referred to as a
+  "host-only blob resource").
+  \item a guest memory and host memory allocation (referred
+  to as a "default blob resource").
+  \end{itemize*}
+
+The memory properties of the blob resource MUST be described by
+\field{blob_mem}, which MUST be non-zero.
+
+For default and guest-only blob resources, \field{nents} guest
+system pages are assigned to the resource.  For default blob resources
+(i.e, when \field{blob_mem} is VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_HOST3D_GUEST), these
+guest pages are used as a shadow buffer for the host memory.
+
+\field{blob_mem} can only be VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_HOST3D and
+VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_HOST3D_GUEST if VIRTIO_GPU_F_VIRGL is supported.
+VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_GUEST is valid regardless whether VIRTIO_GPU_F_VIRGL
+is supported or not.
+
+For VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_HOST3D and VIRTIO_GPU_BLOB_MEM_HOST3D_GUEST, the
+virtio-gpu resource MUST be created from the rendering context local object
+identified by the \field{blob_id}. The actual allocation is done via
+VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_SUBMIT_3D.
+
+The driver MUST inform the device if the blob resource is used for
+memory access, sharing between driver instances and/or sharing with
+other devices. This is done via the \field{blob_flags} field.
+
+If VIRTIO_GPU_F_VIRGL is set, both VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_TRANSFER_TO_HOST_3D
+and VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_TRANSFER_FROM_HOST_3D may be used to update the
+resource. There is no restriction on the image/buffer view the driver
+has on the blob resource.
+
+\item[VIRTIO_GPU_CMD_SET_SCANOUT_BLOB] sets scanout parameters for a
+   blob resource. Request data is
+  \field{struct virtio_gpu_set_scanout_blob}. Response type is
+  VIRTIO_GPU_RESP_OK_NODATA. Support is optional and negotiated
+  using the VIRTIO_GPU_F_RESOURCE_BLOB feature flag.
+
+\begin{lstlisting}
+struct virtio_gpu_set_scanout_blob {
+       struct virtio_gpu_ctrl_hdr hdr;
+       struct virtio_gpu_rect r;
+       le32 scanout_id;
+       le32 resource_id;
+       le32 width;
+       le32 height;
+       le32 format;
+       le32 padding;
+       le32 strides[4];
+       le32 offsets[4];
+};
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The rectangle \field{r} represents the portion of the blob resource being
+displayed. The rest is the metadata associated with the blob resource. The
+format MUST be one of \field{enum virtio_gpu_formats}.  The format MAY be
+compressed with header and data planes.
