On macOS, the test runner binary needs to be signed with com.apple.security.hypervisor entitlement to use the Hypervisor framework for running VMs. Signed-off-by: Matej Hrica <[email protected]>
This flag should be used to indicate to libkrun that downstream network backend wants to receive and transmit the virtio-net header along with Ethernet frames. Network backends using this flag can then forward unmodified headers to another VM or build a sensible virtio_net_hdr (e.g. with GSO fields correctly set) such that receiving VM handles GSO'd frames properly.

Introduce TxQueueConsumer and RxQueueProducer utilities, which allow consuming virtio queues as a bunch of iovec vectors. Notably these utilities are different than the preexisiting descriptor_utilis. The Reader and Writer in descriptor utilis operate on the order of single descriptor chains and don't allow the multiple descriptor chains to be processed at once due to borrowing issues, wheras these the TxQueueConsumer/RxQueueProducer operate on the order of all descriptors of all descriptor chains at once allowing for batch processing of the whole queue at once.

Rewrite the all of the backend (unixstream, unixgram, tap) in terms of the new RxQueueProducer/TxQueueConsumer abstractions. Signed-off-by: Matej Hrica <[email protected]>
