Subject: [PATCH] *** Vhost-pci RFC v2 ***
Date: Sun, 19 Jun 2016 22:14:08 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1466345649-64841-1-git-send-email-wei.w.wang@intel.com> (raw)
This RFC proposes a design of vhost-pci, which is a new virtio device type.
The vhost-pci device is used for inter-VM communication.
Changes in v2:
1. changed the vhost-pci driver to use a controlq to send acknowledgement
messages to the vhost-pci server rather than writing to the device
configuration space;
2. re-organized all the data structures and the description layout;
3. removed the VHOST_PCI_CONTROLQ_UPDATE_DONE socket message, which is redundant;
4. added a message sequence number to the msg info structure to identify socket
messages, and the socket message exchange does not need to be blocking;
5. changed to used uuid to identify each VM rather than using the QEMU process
id
