What do you mean? This is a unix domain socket connection. DPDK can create the socket, then the client may connect to it via connect(2). > I would probably add > these callbacks to struct vhost_user_socket.

The new_connection callback is there just to mark the device as *in use, can't be deleted*. It doesn't transport any connection data. Regards, D.
