This fixes build on SmartOS (Joyent).

Patch cherry-picked from pkgsrc by jperkin (Joyent).

So in hw/usb/dev-mtp.c we're using NAME_MAX in
    char buf[sizeof(struct inotify_event) + NAME_MAX + 1];

because the Linux implementation of inotify documents in inotify(7)
that this is guaranteed to be sufficient to read at least one event:
  http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/inotify.7.html
Looking at the SmartOS manpage
  https://smartos.org/man/5/inotify
there doesn't seem to be any equivalent language.

What is the SmartOS requirement on the buffer size to be
guaranteed to read at least one complete event ?
Defining NAME_MAX to 255 seems like it shuts up the compiler
error but does it give us the correct behaviour?

thanks

According to my understanding SmartOS has the same logic. It tries to
read at least one element, and NAME_MAX guarantees that it will be
available.

https://github.com/joyent/illumos-joyent/blob/master/usr/src/uts/common/io/inotify.c#L1193

I've gathered some overall details about the patches.

1. The inotify linux-compat interface is only SmartOS specific, it
hasn't been upstreamed so far to other Illumos distributions.

2. Upstream Illumos implemented NAME_MAX
https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/9c0752ac0dc05794d2f8a8b4521d55e2b3f63247

It's not available in SmartOS.

3. Proprietary Solaris is out of scope of this work.

Looking at their userland we can assume no qemu support:

https://github.com/oracle/solaris-userland

https://github.com/oracle/solaris-userland/commit/9c78c7b45a5d3dbd64afb455d278d2ca277e2b95#diff-94df904ebca88ee0ff038eaedb063ad6R61

++        if platform.system() == 'SunOS':
++            # No QEMU support on Solaris now.
++            qemu_img = False

We can stop pretending to support it now.

4. SmartOS forked qemu for its hypervisor part and uses qemu-kvm with
the Linux kvm interface (yes, there is Linux kernel kvm port to SmartOS)
- upstreaming the hypervisor's fork is out of scope.

https://github.com/joyent/illumos-kvm-cmd

5. SmartOS ships with virtual machine guests, they host pkgsrc and qemu
from pkgsrc.

6. Jonathan mentioned that preparing a SmartOS tutorial and image will
be tricky, as SmartOS is a hypervisor. I will focus on upstreaming
SmartOS-guest support for qemu, where there is pkgsrc. There is an
option to prepare another Illumos distribution tutorial and testbot,
hopefully it will be fully compatible with SmartOS patches.
