This patch adds support for SIOCINQ ioctl, which returns the number of bytes unread in the socket.

Maybe adjusting it or changing something in the transports, but for virtio-vsock, it seems to me it does exactly what the new `virtio_transport_unread_bytes()` does, right?Sorry, I forgot to update this.
Don't worry.
I am curious that is there a plan to implement dgram support in virtio-vsock? If yes, adding a new callback is the right way to go. I deadly hope to see that feature. If no, will do in the next.
I don't know the status, there were folks working on it, but I didn't see updates. IMO we can deal with it later, since also this patch will not work as it is with datagram since you're checking if the socket is "connectible" and also a state. And maybe we also need some "vsock_datagram_has_data()" anyway, so let's do this when we will have the support. For now let's reuse what we have as much as we can. Thanks. Stefano
Thanks, Xueweiquoted
