Maybe it > affects the project idea? I synced offline with Sergio. It seems I've misread his comment. The code is already available in libkrun, and to port it to rust-vmm will likely take just a couple of days. We explored the option of also requesting to implement VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_MULTIPORT to make it an appropriate GSoC project, but we decided this is not a good idea since it doesn't look like that feature is useful for the projects consuming rust-vmm. It also adds complexity, and we would need to maintain that as well. Since it would still be nice to have virtio-console in rust-vmm, I'll just open an issue in vm-virtio and label it with "help wanted" so people can pick it up. Can we remove the virtio-console project from the list of GSoC ideas? Also, iul@xxxxxxxxxx will like to help with mentoring the GSoC projects. Can he be added as a co-mentor of: "Mocking framework for Virtio Queues"? Sorry for the ping-pong, and thanks again for everything!
