No, memif is built for different purpose and it doesn’t support VM use case. — Damjan -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.

[vpp-dev] Creating qemu VMs using memif instead of vhostuser #vpp-memif #vpp #dpdk #vhost
Hi everyone, I am wondering if we can create VMs using memifs instead of normal vhostuser interfaces. Normal qemu command for creating virtio ifs in VM looks like : *create vhost-user socket /run/vpp/sock1.sock * *-chardev socket,id=char1,path=/var/run/vpp/sock1.sock,server -netdev type=vhost-user,id=net1,chardev=char1,vhostforce -device virtio-net-pci* *,* *mac=,netdev=net1,mrg_rxbuf=off* Now this works flawlessly, but is there a way to create virtio ifs for VM using memif concept of master and slave ?
