The VIRTIO 1.1 packed virtqueue layout improves performance and guest driver
support has been available since Linux v5.0. virtio-blk benchmarks show it is
beneficial for non-net devices too so I wrote patches to enable it for all
devices.

It turned out to be trickier than I expected because vhost feature negotiation
is currently not ready for new virtqueue feature bits like
VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED. Patches 2-4 solve this.

Patch 5 then enables packed virtqueues.

Stefan Hajnoczi (5):
  tests/libqos: mask out VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED for now
  vhost: involve device backends in feature negotiation
  vhost-user-blk: add VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED feature bit
  vhost-scsi: add VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 and VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED
  virtio: enable VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED for all devices
