Hi, I have 2 queries. 1. Is virtio-serial or virtio-console data transfer kernel level and efficient than vhostnet networking. 2. Is 9p efficient for communicating between guests and a host using a virtio based transport. Is this also kernel level transport. Request to bear with my queries. Regards, Devi.

What are you trying to do :)? Stefan
Hi Stefan, I want to transport modules from host and insert in guest and transport the result back to host. Regards, Devi.
