This commit introduces a vhost-user-scsi backend sample application. It
must be linked with libiscsi and libvhost-user.
To use it, compile with:
$ make vhost-user-scsi
And run as follows:
$ ./vhost-user-scsi -u vus.sock -i iscsi://uri_to_target/
$ qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm -m 512 \
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=512m,share=on,mem-path=guestmem \
-numa node,memdev=mem \
-chardev socket,id=vhost-user-scsi,path=vus.sock \
-device vhost-user-scsi-pci,chardev=vhost-user-scsi \
The application is currently limited at one LUN only and it processes
requests synchronously (therefore only achieving QD1). The purpose of
the code is to show how a backend can be implemented and to test the
vhost-user-scsi Qemu implementation.
If a different instance of this vhost-user-scsi application is executed
at a remote host, a VM can be live migrated to such a host.
