Is there a spec that describes all of the possible messages?
For Linux virtio we use it in parallel to the code to make sure all
potential guest OS will follow the same standard.
What about live migration semantics like migrate while transaction is
on? and having the guest aware of the migration so the host data will be
updated?
..
main(void)
{
int fd, len, sock_opt;
int error;
struct cn_msg *message;
struct pollfd pfd;
struct nlmsghdr *incoming_msg;
struct cn_msg *incoming_cn_msg;
char *key_value;
kvp_key_name_t key_name;
daemon(1, 0);
openlog("KVP", 0, LOG_USER);
syslog(LOG_INFO, "KVP starting; pid is:%d", getpid());
/*
* Retrieve OS release information.
*/
kvp_get_os_info();
fd = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_DGRAM, NETLINK_CONNECTOR);
This is nice. One of the first tried for virtio-serial was to use
netlink. We even wanted unix_domain socket for AF_VIRT that will reach
the host but davem nacked it.
