The existing behaviour is not really practical: an automated agent in
charge of starting both qemu and passt would need to fork itself to
start passt, because passt won't fork to background until qemu
connects, and the agent needs to unblock to start qemu.
Instead of waiting for a connection to daemonise, do it right away as
soon as a socket is available: that can be considered an initialised
state already.

Depending on the C library, but not necessarily in all the
functions we use, statx() might be used instead of stat(),
getdents() instead of getdents64(), readlinkat() instead of
readlink(), openat() instead of open().
On aarch64, it's clone() and not fork(), and dup3() instead of
dup2() -- just allow the existing alternative instead of dealing
with per-arch selections.
Since glibc commit 9a7565403758 ("posix: Consolidate fork
implementation"), we need to allow set_robust_list() for
fork()/clone(), even in a single-threaded context.
On some architectures, epoll_pwait() is provided instead of
epoll_wait(), but never both. Same with newfstat() and
fstat(), sigreturn() and rt_sigreturn(), getdents64() and
getdents(), readlink() and readlinkat(), unlink() and
unlinkat(), whereas pipe() might not be available, but
pipe2() always is, exclusively or not.
Seen on Fedora 34: newfstatat() is used on top of fstat().
syslog() is an actual system call on some glibc/arch combinations,
instead of a connect()/send() implementation.
On ppc64 and ppc64le, _llseek(), recv(), send() and getuid()
are used. For ppc64 only: ugetrlimit() for the getrlimit()
implementation, plus sigreturn() and fcntl64().
On s390x, additionally, we need to allow socketcall() (on top
of socket()), and sigreturn() also for passt (not just for
pasta).

This introduces a number of fundamental changes that would be quite
messy to split. Summary:
- advertised window scaling can be as big as we want, we just need
to clamp window sizes to avoid exceeding the size of our "discard"
buffer for unacknowledged data from socket
- add macros to compare sequence numbers
- force sending ACK to guest/tap on PSH segments, always in pasta
mode, whenever we see an overlapping segment, or when we reach a
given threshold compared to our window
- we don't actually use recvmmsg() here, fix comments and label
- introduce pools for pre-opened sockets and pipes, to decrease
latency on new connections
- set receiving and sending buffer sizes to the maximum allowed,
kernel will clamp and round appropriately
- defer clean-up of spliced and non-spliced connection to timer
- in tcp_send_to_tap(), there's no need anymore to keep a large
buffer, shrink it down to what we actually need
- introduce SO_RCVLOWAT setting and activity tracking for spliced
connections, to coalesce data moved by splice() calls as much as
possible
- as we now have a compacted connection table, there's no need to
keep sparse bitmaps tracking connection activity -- simply go
through active connections with a loop in the timer handler
- always clamp the advertised window to half our sending buffer,
too, to minimise retransmissions from the guest/tap
- set TCP_QUICKACK for originating socket in spliced connections,
there's no need to delay them
- fix up timeout for unacknowledged data from socket

we already sent a FIN segment to the tap device, for proper sequence
number bookkeeping
- for pasta mode only: spliced connections also need tracking of
(inferred) FIN segments and clean half-pipe shutdowns
- streamline resetting epoll_wait bitmaps with a new function,
tcp_tap_epoll_mask(), instead of repeating the logic all over the
place
- set EPOLLET for tap connections too, whenever we are waiting for
EPOLLRDHUP or an event from the tap to proceed with data transfer,
to avoid useless loops with EPOLLIN set
- impose an additional limit on the sending window advertised to the
guest, given by SO_SNDBUF: it makes no sense to completely fill
the sending buffer and send a zero window: stop a bit before we
hit that
- handle *all* interrupted system calls as needed
- simplify the logic for reordering of out-of-order segments received
from tap: it's not a corner case, and the previous logic allowed
for deadloops

As data from socket is forwarded to the guest, sendmmsg() might send
fewer bytes than requested in three different ways:
- failing altogether with a negative error code -- ignore that,
we'll get an error on the UNIX domain socket later if there's
really an issue with it and reset the connection to the guest
- sending less than 'vlen' messages -- instead of assuming success
in that case and waiting for the guest to send a duplicate ACK
indicating missing data, update the sequence number according to
what was actually sent and spare some retransmissions
- somewhat unexpectedly to me, sending 'vlen' or less than 'vlen'
messages, returning up to 'vlen', with the last message being
partially sent, and no further indication of errors other than
the returned msg_len for the last partially sent message being
less than iov_len.
In this case, we would assume success and proceed as nothing
happened. However, qemu would fail to parse any further message,
having received a partial descriptor, and eventually close the
connection, logging:
serious error: oversized packet received,connection terminated.
as the length descriptor for the next message would be sourced
from the middle of the next successfully sent message, not from
its header.
Handle this by checking the msg_len returned for the last (even
partially) sent message, and force re-sending the missing bytes,
if any, with a blocking sendmsg() -- qemu must not receive
anything else than that anyway.
While at it, allow to send up to 64KiB for each message, the
previous 32KiB limit isn't actually required, and just switch to a
new message at each iteration on sending buffers, they are already
MSS-sized anyway, so the check in the loop isn't really needed.

PASTA (Pack A Subtle Tap Abstraction) provides quasi-native host

'passt', and the mode of operation is selected depending on how the
binary is invoked. Usage example:

This entails a major rework, especially with regard to the storage of
tracked connections and to the semantics of epoll(7) references.
Indexing TCP and UDP bindings merely by socket proved to be
inflexible and unsuitable to handle different connection flows: pasta
also provides Layer-2 to Layer-2 socket mapping between init and a
separate namespace for local connections, using a pair of splice()
system calls for TCP, and a recvmmsg()/sendmmsg() pair for UDP local
bindings. For instance, building on the previous example:
# ip link set dev lo up
# iperf3 -s
$ iperf3 -c ::1 -Z -w 32M -l 1024k -P2 | tail -n4
[SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 52.3 GBytes 44.9 Gbits/sec 283 sender
[SUM] 0.00-10.43 sec 52.3 GBytes 43.1 Gbits/sec receiver
iperf Done.
epoll(7) references now include a generic part in order to
demultiplex data to the relevant protocol handler, using 24
bits for the socket number, and an opaque portion reserved for
usage by the single protocol handlers, in order to track sockets
back to corresponding connections and bindings.

Before commit 8f7baad7f035 ("tcp: Add snd_wnd to TCP_INFO"), the
kernel didn't export tcpi_snd_wnd via TCP_INFO, which means we don't
know what's the window size of the receiver, socket-side.
To get TCP connections working in that case, ignore this value if
it's zero during handshake, and use the initial window value as
suggested by RFC 6928 (14 600 bytes, instead of 4 380 bytes), to
keep network performance usable.
To make the TCP dynamic responsive enough in this case, also check
the socket for available data whenever we get an ACK segment from
tap, instead of waiting until all the data from the tap is dequeued.
