9 Virtual Socket Protocol is a socket protocol similar to TCP/IP
10 allowing communication between Virtual Machines and hypervisor
11 or host.
12
13 You should also select one or more hypervisor-specific transports
14 below.

16 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
17 will be called vsock. If unsure, say N.

22 default y
23 help
24 Support for PF_VSOCK sockets monitoring interface used by the ss tool.
25 If unsure, say Y.
26
27 Enable this module so userspace applications can query open sockets.

32 help
33 This module implements a VMCI transport for Virtual Sockets.
34
35 Enable this transport if your Virtual Machine runs on a VMware
36 hypervisor.

46 This module implements a virtio transport for Virtual Sockets.
47
48 Enable this transport if your Virtual Machine host supports Virtual
49 Sockets over virtio.

57 This option is selected by any driver which needs to access
58 the virtio_vsock. The module will be called
59 vmw_vsock_virtio_transport_common.

64 help
65 This module implements a Hyper-V transport for Virtual Sockets.
66
67 Enable this transport if your Virtual Machine host supports Virtual
68 Sockets over Hyper-V VMBus.
