+config VHOST_RPMSG
+ tristate
+ depends on VHOST
depends on RPMSG_VIRTIO?
No, RPMSG_VIRTIO is used on the guest side, VHOST_RPMSG (as well as
all other vhost drivers) on the host side.
I vaguely recalled something about sockets, and was wondering if there isn't
a dependency on this:
config VHOST_VSOCK
tristate "vhost virtio-vsock driver"
depends on VSOCKETS && EVENTFD && VHOST_DPN
select VHOST
You probably are thinking about the first patch in the series "vhost: convert
VHOST_VSOCK_SET_RUNNING to a generic ioctl." But no, this RPMsg driver
doesn't depend on vsock, on the contrary, it takes a (albeit tiny) piece of
functionality from vsock and makes it global.
yes, this is what I was thinking about, thanks for clarifying.
