Here we introduce a simple memory based block device that
can be presented to Guest VM through vhost-user-scsi-pci
controller. Similar with vhost-net, the sample application
will process the I/Os sent via virt rings.

Applied to dpdk-next-virtio.
Though my comment is late.
I am just wondering if it is not better to refactor the existing vhost
applications and add this as a mode instead of adding one more sample
application?
Thanks.
