Hi all, This patch series implements a new transport for 9pfs, aimed at Xen systems.
The transport is based on a traditional Xen frontend and backend drivers pair. This patch series implements the frontend, which typically runs in a regular unprivileged guest. I'll follow up with another series that implements the backend in userspace in QEMU, which typically runs in Dom0 (but could also run in a another guest). The frontend complies to the Xen transport for 9pfs specification version 1, available here: http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=blob_plain;f=docs/misc/9pfs.markdown;hb=HEAD Stefano Stabellini (7): xen: import new ring macros in ring.h xen: introduce the header file for the Xen 9pfs transport protocol xen/9pfs: introduce Xen 9pfs transport driver xen/9pfs: connect to the backend xen/9pfs: send requests to the backend xen/9pfs: receive responses xen/9pfs: build 9pfs Xen transport driver include/xen/interface/io/9pfs.h | 40 ++++ include/xen/interface/io/ring.h | 131 ++++++++++++ net/9p/Kconfig | 8 + net/9p/Makefile | 4 + net/9p/trans_xen.c | 462 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 645 insertions(+) create mode 100644 include/xen/interface/io/9pfs.h create mode 100644 net/9p/trans_xen.c Cheers, Stefano _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xen.org https://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
