This is a prototype for virtio-net 1.1 support in userspace backend,
only minimum part are included in this RFC(roughly synced to v8 as
Jason and Tiwei's RFC).
Test has been done together with Tiwei's RFC guest virtio-net driver
patch, ping and a quick iperf test successfully.
Issues:
1. Rx performance of Iperf is much slower than TX.
TX: 13-15Gb
RX: 100-300Mb
Missing:
- device and driver
- indirect descriptor
- migration
- vIOMMU support
- other revisions since v8
- see FIXME
