Hello,

I am currently trying to use nfs-vsocks on x86 for vitural machine 
filesystem by some manuals on 
https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-nfs/msg64563.html
and https://lwn.net/Articles/647516/

It tells the quickstart steps with the following codes but I got some 
problems as listed.
  * Linux kernel: https://github.com/stefanha/linux.git vsock-nfs
  * QEMU virtio-vsock device: https://github.com/stefanha/qemu.git vsock
  * nfs-utils vsock: https://github.com/stefanha/nfs-utils.git vsock

1. I would like to ask what is the current status of these codes? If 
there're some updates? :)
2. nfs-utils codes could not compile for me... I refered to the README 
but failed for both ways. It seems no configure script and 
autoheader/automake... So I don't know how to install this.
3. For the 5th step (Start nfsd), I'd like to know the rpc.nfsd --vsock 
is enabled by which codes? Is it the CONFIG_VHOST_VSOCK kernel module in 
host? Because I installed the kernel with vsock-nfs repo with the 
specified config options but failed to do rpc.nfsd --vsock.


Could you give me some help and thanks in advance!

BRs,
Jing Liu
