Hi Jason,

Thank your advice, I will consider your idea. But I don't know
what's stefan's suggestion? It seems that he doesn't care much
about this community. :(

I still hope this community can have some vitality.

Let's wait for few more days for the possible comments from Stefan or 
Michael. But I do prefer to unify the virtio networking datapath which 
will be easier to be extended and maintained.

Hi Jason,

Actually vsock use virtio-net as transport path should be a better idea,
I will try to consider the new idea.

Thanks,
