This commit is huge and highly intrusive. Since it seems to be turning the vm_device crate into a virtio specific one, I have a couple of fundamental questions:
- How is a virtio MMIO device different than a
DeviceMmioone? - You're renaming a bunch of structures, deleting a bunch of modules, to essentially accommodate for virtio MMIO. But is there something missing from the
vm_devicecrate that would prevent you to use it as is?

- A virtio MMIO device is basically a
DeviceMmio, with some slightly tweaked QoL (such as having the offset as an Enum corresponding to the virtio layout, or usingGuestAddress, the same as in lumper). They are essentially the same. - Nothing is missing from
vm_device. However, this fork is easier to work with, since it corresponds to our use case.
I will try giving another shot at using the upstream crate.

Hi !
This PR is aimed at providing a more specific use case of the
rust-vmm/vm-devicecrate. Since we are exclusively using it for virtio-mmio device, I've deleted all the code related to PIO devices, to make the code more readable.I've also taken the liberty of specializing this crate to virtio 1.2 mmio devices, and not for all kind of mmio-mapped devices. This is also our only use case, and allows for some virtio abstractions higher up in the layers when managing virtio devices.
Most of the PR is deletions and renaming.
