Stefano Garzarella says: ==================== vsock: add multi-transports support Most of the patches are reviewed by Dexuan, Stefan, and Jorgen. The following patches need reviews: - [11/15] vsock: add multi-transports support - [12/15] vsock/vmci: register vmci_transport only when VMCI guest/host are active - [15/15] vhost/vsock: refuse CID assigned to the guest->host transport RFC: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1168442/ v1: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1181986/ v1 -> v2: - Patch 11: + vmci_transport: sent reset when vsock_assign_transport() fails [Jorgen] + fixed loopback in the guests, checking if the remote_addr is the same of transport_g2h->get_local_cid() + virtio_transport_common: updated space available while creating the new child socket during a connection request - Patch 12: + removed 'features' variable in vmci_transport_init() [Stefan] + added a flag to register only once the host [Jorgen] - Added patch 15 to refuse CID assigned to the guest->host transport in the vhost_transport This series adds the multi-transports support to vsock, following this proposal: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg575792.html With the multi-transports support, we can use VSOCK with nested VMs (using also different hypervisors) loading both guest->host and host->guest transports at the same time. Before this series, vmci_transport supported this behavior but only using VMware hypervisor on L0, L1, etc. The first 9 patches are cleanups and preparations, maybe some of these can go regardless of this series. Patch 10 changes the hvs_remote_addr_init(). setting the VMADDR_CID_HOST as remote CID instead of VMADDR_CID_ANY to make the choice of transport to be used work properly. Patch 11 adds multi-transports support. Patch 12 changes a little bit the vmci_transport and the vmci driver to register the vmci_transport only when there are active host/guest. Patch 13 prevents the transport modules unloading while sockets are assigned to them. Patch 14 fixes an issue in the bind() logic discoverable only with the new multi-transport support. Patch 15 refuses CID assigned to the guest->host transport in the vhost_transport. I've tested this series with nested KVM (vsock-transport [L0,L1], virtio-transport[L1,L2]) and with VMware (L0) + KVM (L1) (vmci-transport [L0,L1], vhost-transport [L1], virtio-transport[L2]). Dexuan successfully tested the RFC series on HyperV with a Linux guest. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
