CAN, GPIO, RNG vhost-devices for virtio-loopback [v6]quillback_16.92.0quillback/16.92.016.92.0
This patch adds key components of the viritio-loopback architecture: - kernel-module-virtio-loopback: the virtio loopback kernel driver - CAN, GPIO and RNG vhost-user devices from meta-virtualization (commit a215d8320edee0a317a6511e7e2efa5bba867486) Notes: - libgpiod, comes from meta-openembedded commit 3029554ceb0b0bb52a8d8ec3f0a75c5113662fe6 - cleaned eg-virt from unused drivers (kernel-module-virtio-video) Bug-AGL: SPEC-4834 V2 changes: - related meta-virtualization commit message added in the cover letter - updated libgpio recipe to v2.1 - SPEC reference added in cover letter v3 - add vhost-device-can preliminary version. This is placed here with the objective to share the link when proposing the new device to the rust-vmm/vhost-device community - remove cargo-update-recipe-crates includes in bb file because it is not supported by the rust mixin layer - vhost-device folder README changes v4 - fixed libgpiod required version - tested ref hw and qemu x86/64 builds - vsock, scsi and i2c rust devices removed from the build as they are not yet integrated in virtiod-loopback - cleaned-up kernel modules kernel-module-virtio-video and gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad - virtio-loopback-driver set to 2-or-later v5 - Merge with Jan-Simon version v4: - remove broken kernel-module-virtio-video - use FEATURE_PACKAGES instead of IMAGE_INSTALL:append - rename virtio-loopback-driver.bb to kernel-module-virtio-loopback_git.bb for consistency v6 - adding version in the title - removing MODULE_GIT_REPOSITORY in kernel-modules Change-Id: Id6cc58e777b9edad03b6c50d0dddaac8601edeaf Signed-off-by: Michele Paolino <m.paolino@virtualopensystems.com> Signed-off-by: Jan-Simon Moeller <jsmoeller@linuxfoundation.org>

+# vhost-device: A collection of vhost-user devices
+
+[vhost-device](https://github.com/rust-vmm/vhost-device) provides a series of
+daemons that implement the
+[vhost-user protocol](https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/interop/vhost-user.html)
+for various virtio device types.
