In the vhost_vsock.ko case we only register the h2g transport when userspace has loaded the module (by opening /dev/vhost-vsock).
VMCI has something kind of similar: /dev/vmci and the vmci_host_active_users counter. Maybe we can use this instead of introducing the transport_hg concept? [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] |
