* common: Fix peer_buf_alloc inheritance on child socket

This patch series adds a virtio transport for AF_VSOCK (net/vmw_vsock/).
AF_VSOCK is designed for communication between virtual machines and
hypervisors. It is currently only implemented for VMware's VMCI transport.

This series implements the proposed virtio-vsock device specification from
here:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.virtio.devel/855

Most of the work was done by Asias He and Gerd Hoffmann a while back. I have
picked up the series again.

The QEMU userspace changes are here:
https://github.com/stefanha/qemu/commits/vsock

Why virtio-vsock?
-----------------
Guest<->host communication is currently done over the virtio-serial device.
This makes it hard to port sockets API-based applications and is limited to
static ports.

virtio-vsock uses the sockets API so that applications can rely on familiar
SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_DGRAM semantics. Applications on the host can easily
connect to guest agents because the sockets API allows multiple connections to
a listen socket (unlike virtio-serial). This simplifies the guest<->host
communication and eliminates the need for extra processes on the host to
arbitrate virtio-serial ports.

Overview
--------
This series adds 3 pieces:

1. virtio_transport_common.ko - core virtio vsock code that uses vsock.ko

2. virtio_transport.ko - guest driver

3. drivers/vhost/vsock.ko - host driver

Howto
-----
The following kernel options are needed:
CONFIG_VSOCKETS=y
CONFIG_VIRTIO_VSOCKETS=y
CONFIG_VIRTIO_VSOCKETS_COMMON=y
CONFIG_VHOST_VSOCK=m

Launch QEMU as follows:
# qemu ... -device vhost-vsock-pci,id=vhost-vsock-pci0,guest-cid=3

Guest and host can communicate via AF_VSOCK sockets. The host's CID (address)
is 2 and the guest is automatically assigned a CID (use VMADDR_CID_ANY (-1) to
bind to it).

Status
------
There are a few design changes I'd like to make to the virtio-vsock device:

1. The 3-way handshake isn't necessary over a reliable transport (virtqueue).
Spoofing packets is also impossible so the security aspects of the 3-way
handshake (including syn cookie) add nothing. The next version will have a
single operation to establish a connection.

2. Credit-based flow control doesn't work for SOCK_DGRAM since multiple clients
can transmit to the same listen socket. There is no way for the clients to
coordinate buffer space with each other fairly. The next version will drop
credit-based flow control for SOCK_DGRAM and only rely on best-effort
delivery. SOCK_STREAM still has guaranteed delivery.

3. In the next version only the host will be able to establish connections
(i.e. to connect to a guest agent). This is for security reasons since
there is currently no ability to provide host services only to certain
guests. This also matches how AF_VSOCK works on modern VMware hypervisors.

Merge branch 'vsock'

Andy King says:

====================
In an effort to improve the out-of-the-box experience with Linux kernels for
VMware users, VMware is working on readying the VM Sockets (VSOCK, formerly
VMCI Sockets) (vsock) kernel module for inclusion in the Linux kernel. The
purpose of this post is to acquire feedback on the vsock kernel module.

Unlike previous submissions, where the new socket family was entirely reliant
on VMware's VMCI PCI device (and thus VMware's hypervisor), VM Sockets is now
completely[1] separated out into two parts, each in its own module:

o Core socket code, which is transport-neutral and invokes transport
callbacks to communicate with the hypervisor. This is vsock.ko.
o A VMCI transport, which communicates over VMCI with the VMware hypervisor.
This is vmw_vsock_vmci_transport.ko, and it registers with the core module
as a transport.

This should provide a path to introducing additional transports, for example
virtio, with the ultimate goal being to make this new socket family
hypervisor-neutral.

[1] If Gerd tries it and determines this to be false (still), I'll ship him
a keg of beer.

VSOCK: Introduce VM Sockets

VM Sockets allows communication between virtual machines and the hypervisor.
User level applications both in a virtual machine and on the host can use the
VM Sockets API, which facilitates fast and efficient communication between
guest virtual machines and their host. A socket address family, designed to be
compatible with UDP and TCP at the interface level, is provided.

Today, VM Sockets is used by various VMware Tools components inside the guest
for zero-config, network-less access to VMware host services. In addition to
this, VMware's users are using VM Sockets for various applications, where
network access of the virtual machine is restricted or non-existent. Examples
of this are VMs communicating with device proxies for proprietary hardware
running as host applications and automated testing of applications running
within virtual machines.

The VMware VM Sockets are similar to other socket types, like Berkeley UNIX
socket interface. The VM Sockets module supports both connection-oriented
stream sockets like TCP, and connectionless datagram sockets like UDP. The VM
Sockets protocol family is defined as "AF_VSOCK" and the socket operations
split for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM.

For additional information about the use of VM Sockets, please refer to the
VM Sockets Programming Guide available at:
