Michael Tokarev 25e5e4c7e9 rewrite iov_send_recv() and move it to iov.c
Make it much more understandable, add a missing
iov_cnt argument (number of iovs in the iov), and
add comments to it.

The new implementation has been extensively tested
by splitting a large buffer into many small
randomly-sized chunks, sending it over socket to
another, slow process and verifying the receiving
data is the same.

Also add a unit test for iov_send_recv(), sending/
receiving data between two processes over a socketpair
using random vectors and random sizes.

Michael Tokarev 2fc8ae1dd7 cleanup qemu_co_sendv(), qemu_co_recvv() and friends
The same as for non-coroutine versions in previous
patches: rename arguments to be more obvious, change
type of arguments from int to size_t where appropriate,
and use common code for send and receive paths (with
one extra argument) since these are exactly the same.
Use common iov_send_recv() directly.

qemu_co_sendv(), qemu_co_recvv(), and qemu_co_recv()
are now trivial #define's merely adding one extra arg.

qemu_co_sendv() and qemu_co_recvv() callers are
converted to different argument order and extra
`iov_cnt' argument.

Michael Tokarev 3e80bf9351 rename qemu_sendv to iov_send, change proto and move declarations to iov.h
Rename arguments and use size_t for sizes instead of int,
from
 int
 qemu_sendv(int sockfd, struct iovec *iov,
            int len, int iov_offset)
to
 ssize_t
 iov_send(int sockfd, struct iovec *iov,
          size_t offset, size_t bytes)

The main motivation was to make it clear that length
and offset are in _bytes_, not in iov elements: it was
very confusing before, because all standard functions
which deals with iovecs expects number of iovs, not
bytes, even the fact that struct iovec has iov_len and
iov_ prefix does not help.  With "bytes" and "offset",
especially since they're now size_t, it is much more
explicit.  Also change the return type to be ssize_t
instead of int.

This also changes it to match other iov-related functons,
but not _quite_: there's still no argument indicating
where iovec ends, ie, no iov_cnt parameter as used
in iov_size() and friends.  If will be added in subsequent
patch/rewrite.

All callers of qemu_sendv() and qemu_recvv() and
related, like qemu_co_sendv() and qemu_co_recvv(),
were checked to verify that it is safe to use unsigned
datatype instead of int.

Note that the order of arguments is changed to: offset
and bytes (len and iov_offset) are swapped with each
other.  This is to make them consistent with very similar
functions from qemu_iovec family, where offset always
follows qiov, to mean the place in it to start from.

Paolo Bonzini 8c5135f90e sheepdog: move coroutine send/recv function to generic code
Outside coroutines, avoid busy waiting on EAGAIN by temporarily
making the socket blocking.

The API of qemu_recvv/qemu_sendv is slightly different from
do_readv/do_writev because they do not handle coroutines.  It
returns the number of bytes written before encountering an
EAGAIN.  The specificity of yielding on EAGAIN is entirely in
qemu-coroutine.c.
