Virtio vsock
Fri, Oct 14, 2016virtio-vsock is a host/guest communications device. It allows applications in the guest and host to communicate. This can be used to implement hypervisor services and guest agents (like qemu-guest-agent or SPICE vdagent).
Unlike virtio-serial, virtio-vsock supports the POSIX Sockets API so existing networking applications require minimal modification. The Sockets API allows N:1 connections so multiple clients can connect to a server simultaneously.
The device has an address assigned automatically so no configuration is required inside the guest.
Sockets are created with the AF_VSOCK address family. The SOCK_STREAM socket type is currently implemented.
