It is an error to connect to VMADDR_CID_ANY. Ok. Then I'll only allow VMADDR_CID_HOST as the destination CID, since we don't support loopback mode. > > > > + /* The host's port range [MIN_HOST_EPHEMERAL_PORT, 0xFFFFFFFF) > > > is > > > > + * reserved as ephemeral ports, which are used as the host's ports > > > > + * when the host initiates connections. > > > > + */ > > > > + if (port > MAX_HOST_LISTEN_PORT) > > > > + return false; > > > > > > Without this if statement the guest will attempt to connect.

Please see the below for the updated version of the function: static bool hvs_stream_allow(u32 cid, u32 port) { /* The host's port range [MIN_HOST_EPHEMERAL_PORT, 0xFFFFFFFF) is * reserved as ephemeral ports, which are used as the host's ports * when the host initiates connections. * * Perform this check in the guest so an immediate error is produced * instead of a timeout. */ if (port > MAX_HOST_LISTEN_PORT) return false; if (cid == VMADDR_CID_HOST) return true; return false; } I'll send a v2 of the patch later today. -- Dexuan _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
