Second revision of the VMware VMCI RFC patchset. It incorperates fixes for all the feedback about the comment blocks and style and now passes checkpatch with 0 errors and 0 warnings. Thanks to all who have reviewed the code thus far. * * * In an effort to improve the out-of-the-box experience with Linux kernels for VMware users, VMware is working on readying the Virtual Machine Communication

In an effort to improve the out-of-the-box experience with Linux kernels for VMware users, VMware is working on readying the Virtual Machine Communication Interface (vmw_vmci) and VMCI Sockets (vmw_vsock) kernel modules for inclusion in the Linux kernel. The purpose of this post is to acquire feedback on the vmw_vmci kernel module. The vmw_vsock kernel module will be presented in a later post.
