This series is to refactor vhost stub vhost-user-input. Since vhost input stub requires set_config() callback for communication event configurations between the backend and the guest, patch 01 is a preparison for support set_config() callback in vhost-user-base.
The patch 02 is to add documentation for vhost-user-input. The patch 03 is to move virtio input stub from the input folder to the virtio folder. The patch 04 derives vhost-user-input from vhost-user-base. We reuse the common code from vhhost-user-base as possible and the input stub is simplized significantly. This patch set has been tested with the backend daemon: # ./build/contrib/vhost-user-input/vhost-user-input \ -p /dev/input/event20 -s /tmp/input.sock The series is based on "[PATCH v8 0/7] virtio: cleanup vhost-user-generic and reduce c&p" which introduces vhost-user-base.
