[virtio-comment] [RFC PATCH v7 0/2] virtio-vsock: introduce SOCK_SEQPACKET description

[Arseny Krasnov]

This adds description of SOCK_SEQPACKET type for virtio-vsock.

Here is merged Linux implementation:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210611110744.3650456-1-arseny.krasnov@kaspersky.com/

Here is extra patchset for record boundaries:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/10/482

Also this patchset has patch which replaces enums to defines in
virtio-vsock part of spec. SOCK_SEQPACKET patch is based on it.

[virtio-comment] [RFC PATCH v7 1/2] virtio-vsock: use C style defines for constants

[Arseny Krasnov]

This:
1) Replaces enums with C style "defines", because
   use of enums is not documented, while "defines"
   are widely used in spec.
2) Adds defines for some constants.

[virtio-comment] Re: [RFC PATCH v7 2/2] virtio-vsock: SOCK_SEQPACKET description

[Arseny Krasnov]

Hello, i'm a little bit confused about record boundaries description here:

is it neccessary to describe what is "message", what is "record" and MSG_EOR

bit from POSIX, because this is virtio spec and it is not related with Linux and POSIX

Thank You

Maybe we could have a single section where we talk about the boundaries 
and list the two flags together.

We should also explain what we mean by message boundaries (payload sent 
with a single system call) and record boundaries (payload with MSG_EOR 
flag set).

Thanks,
Stefano
