Synopsis:

#include <qvm/vio.h>
ssize_t vio_append_iov(const vdev_t *vdp,
                       vq_t *vq,
                       unsigned didx,
                       struct vio_iov *iov,
                       size_t cap)

Arguments:

vdp
A pointer to a vdev's state structure.
vq
A pointer to the virtual queue from which we are taking descriptors.
didx
An index to the descriptor.
iov
A pointer to the structure being extended.
cap
The maximum length of the mapped data.

Returns:

If successful, the length of the new descriptor; otherwise, a negative errno value.
