initial accelio support
This patch adds a support of accelio, an library of RPC which wraps
TCP and RDMA in clean way, to sheepdog. With this change, sheepdog
will be able to utilize high speed interconnect like infiniband.
The code is very early stage and have bunch of ToDos. However, I'd
like to share it and want the community to help the implementation.
How to build:
1. install accelio
2. ./configure --enable-accelio
3. make
How to use:
$ sheep -i transport=rdma,addr=xxx,port=yyy ...
Minor ToDos:
- clean up code (e.g. comment out)
- remove known segfault bugs
- sane error handling
- remove memory leaks
Major ToDos:
- enhance code for utilizing RDMA
- rx/tx in worker threads (I'm not sure it is effective because RDMA
helps to reduce CPU consumption)
