Replace the global variables with inlined helper functions. getpagesize() is very
likely annotated with a "const" function attribute (at least with glibc), and thus
optimization should apply even better.
This avoids the need for a constructor initialization too.

There are three page size in qemu:
real host page size
host page size
target page size
All of them have dedicate variable to represent. For the last two, we
use the same form in the whole qemu project, while for the first one we
use two forms: qemu_real_host_page_size and getpagesize().
qemu_real_host_page_size is defined to be a replacement of
getpagesize(), so let it serve the role.

Currently libvhost-user is hardcoded to at most 8 virtqueues. The
device backend should decide the number of virtqueues, not
libvhost-user. This is important for multiqueue device backends where
the guest driver needs an accurate number of virtqueues.
This change breaks libvhost-user and libvhost-user-glib API stability.
There is no stability guarantee yet, so make this change now and update
all in-tree library users.
This patch touches up vhost-user-blk, vhost-user-gpu, vhost-user-input,
vhost-user-scsi, and vhost-user-bridge. If the device has a fixed
number of queues that exact number is used. Otherwise the previous
default of 8 virtqueues is used.
vu_init() and vug_init() can now fail if malloc() returns NULL. I
considered aborting with an error in libvhost-user but it should be safe
to instantiate new vhost-user instances at runtime without risk of
terminating the process. Therefore callers need to handle the vu_init()
failure now.
vhost-user-blk and vhost-user-scsi duplicate virtqueue index checks that
are already performed by libvhost-user. This code would need to be
modified to use max_queues but remove it completely instead since it's
redundant.

Use of a do/while(0) loop as a way to allow break statements in
the middle of execute-once code is unusual. More typical is
the use of goto for early exits, with a label at the end of
the execute-once code, rather than nesting code in a scope;
however, the comment at the end of the existing code makes this
alternative a bit unpractical.
So, to avoid false positives from a future syntax check about
'while (false);', and to keep the loop form (in case someone
ever does add DONTWAIT support, where they can just as easily
manipulate the initial loop condition or add an if around the
final 'break'), I opted to use the form of a while(1) loop (the
break as an early exit is more idiomatic there), coupled with
a final break preserving the original comment.

This patch is a similar solution to what Yuanhan Liu/Huawei Xie have
suggested for DPDK. When vubr quits (killed or crashed), a restart of
vubr would get stale vring base from QEMU. That would break the kernel
virtio net completely, making it non-work any more, unless a driver
reset is done.
So, instead of getting the stale vring base from QEMU, Huawei suggested
we could get a proper one from used->idx. This works because the queues
packets are processed in order.

The test existing in QEMU for vhost-user feature is good for
testing the management protocol, but does not allow actual
traffic. This patch proposes Vhost-User Bridge application, which
can serve the QEMU community as a comprehensive test by running
real internet traffic by means of vhost-user interface.
Essentially the Vhost-User Bridge is a very basic vhost-user
backend for QEMU. It runs as a standalone user-level process.
For packet processing Vhost-User Bridge uses an additional QEMU
instance with a backend configured by "-net socket" as a shared
VLAN. This way another QEMU virtual machine can effectively
serve as a shared bus by means of UDP communication.
For a more simple setup, the another QEMU instance running the
SLiRP backend can be the same QEMU instance running vhost-user
client.
This Vhost-User Bridge implementation is very preliminary. It is
missing many features. I has been studying vhost-user protocol
internals, so I've written vhost-user-bridge bit by bit as I
progressed through the protocol. Most probably its internal
architecture will change significantly.
To run Vhost-User Bridge application:
1. Build vhost-user-bridge with a regular procedure. This will
create a vhost-user-bridge executable under tests directory:
$ configure; make tests/vhost-user-bridge
2. Ensure the machine has hugepages enabled in kernel with
command line like:
default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048
3. Run Vhost-User Bridge with:
$ tests/vhost-user-bridge
The above will run vhost-user server listening for connections
on UNIX domain socket /tmp/vubr.sock, and will try to connect
by UDP to VLAN bridge to localhost:5555, while listening on
localhost:4444
Run qemu with a virtio-net backed by vhost-user:
$ qemu \
-enable-kvm -m 512 -smp 2 \
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=512M,mem-path=/dev/hugepages,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=mem -mem-prealloc \
-chardev socket,id=char0,path=/tmp/vubr.sock \
-netdev type=vhost-user,id=mynet1,chardev=char0,vhostforce \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=mynet1 \
-net none \
-net socket,vlan=0,udp=localhost:4444,localaddr=localhost:5555 \
-net user,vlan=0 \
disk.img
vhost-user-bridge was tested very lightly: it's able to bringup a
linux on client VM with the virtio-net driver, and execute transmits
and receives to the internet. I tested with "wget redhat.com",
"dig redhat.com".
PS. I've consulted DPDK's code for vhost-user during Vhost-User
Bridge implementation.
