This patch introduces the host "Virtio over PCIe" interface for Intel MIC. It allows creating user space backends on the host and instantiating virtio devices for them on the Intel MIC card. It uses the existing VRINGH infrastructure in the kernel to access virtio rings from the host. A character device per MIC is exposed with IOCTL, mmap and poll callbacks. This allows the user space backend to: (a) add/remove a virtio device via a device page. (b) map (R/O) virtio rings and device page to user space. (c) poll for availability of data. (d) copy a descriptor or entire descriptor chain to/from the card. (e) modify virtio configuration. (f) handle virtio device reset. The buffers are copied over using CPU copies for this initial patch and host initiated MIC DMA support is planned for future patches. The avail and desc virtio rings are in host memory and the used ring is in card memory to maximize writes across PCIe for performance.
