From ae0078fcf0a5eb3a8623bfb5f988262e0911fdb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dexuan Cui Date: Sat, 26 Aug 2017 04:52:43 +0000 Subject: hv_sock: implements Hyper-V transport for Virtual Sockets (AF_VSOCK) Hyper-V Sockets (hv_sock) supplies a byte-stream based communication mechanism between the host and the guest. It uses VMBus ringbuffer as the transportation layer. With hv_sock, applications between the host (Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 or newer) and the guest can talk with each other using the traditional socket APIs. More info about Hyper-V Sockets is available here: "Make your own integration services": https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/user-guide/make-integration-service The patch implements the necessary support in Linux guest by introducing a new vsock transport for AF_VSOCK.
