The following patches allow users to configure the vhost worker threads for vhost-scsi. With vhost-net we get a worker thread per rx/tx virtqueue pair, but for vhost-scsi we get one worker for all workqueues. This becomes a bottlneck after 2 queues are used.
In the upstream linux kernel commit: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/vhost/vhost.c?id=c1ecd8e9500797748ae4f79657971955d452d69d we enabled the vhost layer to be able to create a worker thread and attach it to a virtqueue. This patchset adds support to vhost-scsi to use these ioctls so we are no longer limited to the single worker. v3: - Warn user if they have set worker_per_virtqueue=true but the kernel doesn't support it. v2: - Make config option a bool instead of an int.
