...rstand why there's all this stuff about multiple FDs, once you have access to the guest's memory, why do you still need a second (or more) FDs? Also, not sure I understand how the client is started? Once we have a connection, I guess as a client I'd at the very least have to handle * VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES and reply with the features, obviously, which is in this case just VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES? * VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES - not sure, what would that do? the master sends VHOST_USER_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES which is with this feature bit? Especially since it says: "Slave that repo...

It's expected that the user or the management stack has already launched the vhost-user device backend. > Once we have a connection, I guess as a client I'd at the very least > have to handle > * VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES and reply with the features, obviously, which > is in this case just VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES? > > * VHOST_USER_SET_FEATURES - not sure, what would that do? the master > sends VHOST_USER_GET_PROTOCOL_FEATURES which is with this feature > bit?

Hi, While my main interest is mostly in UML right now [1] I've CC'ed the qemu and virtualization lists because something similar might actually apply to other types of virtualization. I'm thinking about adding virt-io support to UML, but the tricky part is that while I want to use the virt-io basics (because it's a nice interface from the 'inside'), I don't actually
