This patch introduces the vfio-user protocol specification (formerly known as VFIO-over-socket), which is designed to allow devices to be emulated outside QEMU, in a separate process. vfio-user reuses the existing VFIO defines, structs and concepts. It has been earlier discussed as an RFC in: "RFC: use VFIO over a UNIX domain socket to implement device offloading" Signed-off-by: Thanos Makatos <thanos.makatos@nutanix.com> Signed-off-by: John Levon <john.levon@nutanix.com> Reviewed-by: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20250625193012.2316242-20-john.levon@nutanix.com Signed-off-by: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com> |
