It'll be up to you guys to add virtio, though :) I sent out a patch series this morning that splits out our code into a core part, containing the socket family/operations, and a VMCI-specific part. The core makes callbacks via a new transport layer into VMCI. It's not perfect -- there's still some cruft in the core socket structure -- but it lays the foundation of a hypervisor-neutral channel, and hopefully we can build on this with your help. It'd be great if you could take a look.
