virtio: introduce the consistent-qp feature
In certain usecases related to Linux legacy pinning of flows on queue pairs, it is desirable that, for a given index, the rx and tx virtio queue be handled by the same worker. This change introduces a flag for virtio and tap interfaces that allow such a mapping. Example with two workers rxq 0 and txq 0 on worker 0 rxq 1 and txq 1 on worker 1 txq 2 on main thread Change-Id: I1b74a4788843fd1d0e8dcb4e9da30e609e088fe3 Signed-off-by: Mohammed Hawari <mohammed@hawari.fr> Type: improvement
