This series focus on network backend (excluding slirp). The related patch
for core's re-entrant (queue.c net.c) will be sent out separatelly.
The choice between GSource or AioContext is not decided yet.
If we choose AioContext, I think we need to expand extra interface for
readable() and writable(). readable() is different from io_flush, which
causes block for sync, but this sync is not neccessary for NetWork.
v2->v3:
1.drop hub and the frontend(virtio net)
2.split the patch for NetClientSource
v1->v2:
1.NetClientState can associate with up to 2 GSource, for virtio net, one for
tx, one for rx,
so vq can run on different threads.
2.make network front-end onto glib, currently virtio net dataplane
Liu Ping Fan (5):
net: introduce glib function for network
net: port tap onto glib
net: resolve race of tap backend and its peer
net: port vde onto glib
net: port socket to glib
