Hi Jason, I am not very familiar with virtio-net, so I am afraid I can't give too much effective advice. Then I have several problems: 1. If use virtio-net as a transport, guest should see a virtio-net device instead of virtio-vsock device, right? Is vsock only as a transport between socket and net_device? User should still use AF_VSOCK type to create socket, right? 2. I want to know if this idea has already started, and how is the current progress? 3. And what is stefan's idea?
