From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

  This series adds support for acceleration of virtiofs via DAX
mapping, using features added in the 5.11 Linux kernel.

  DAX originally existed in the kernel for mapping real storage
devices directly into memory, so that reads/writes turn into
reads/writes directly mapped into the storage device.

  virtiofs's DAX support is similar; a PCI BAR is exposed on the
virtiofs device corresponding to a DAX 'cache' of a user defined size.
The guest daemon then requests files to be mapped into that cache;
when that happens the virtiofsd sends filedescriptors and commands back
to the QEMU that mmap's those files directly into the memory slot
exposed to kvm.  The guest can then directly read/write to the files
exposed by virtiofs by reading/writing into the BAR.

  A typical invocation would be:
     -device vhost-user-fs-pci,queue-size=1024,chardev=char0,tag=myfs,cache-size=4G

and then the guest must mount with -o dax

  Note that the cache doesn't really take VM up on the host, because
everything placed there is just an mmap of a file, so you can afford
to use quite a large cache size.

  Unlike a real DAX device, the cache is a finite size that's
potentially smaller than the underlying filesystem (especially when
mapping granuality is taken into account).  Mapping, unmapping and
remapping must take place to juggle files into the cache if it's too
small.  Some workloads benefit more than others.

Gotchas:
  a) If something else on the host truncates an mmap'd file,
kvm gets rather upset;  for this reason it's advised that DAX is
currently only suitable for use on non-shared filesystems.
