7 | This kernel module can be loaded in host kernel to accelerate | |
8 | guest networking with virtio_net. Not to be confused with virtio_net | |
9 | module itself which needs to be loaded in guest kernel. | |
10 | ||
11 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will | |
12 | be called vhost_net. | |

30 | This kernel module can be loaded in the host kernel to provide AF_VSOCK | |
31 | sockets for communicating with guests. The guests must have the | |
32 | virtio_transport.ko driver loaded to use the virtio-vsock device. | |

47 | This option allows vhost to support guests with a different byte | |
48 | ordering from host while using legacy virtio. | |
49 | ||
50 | Userspace programs can control the feature using the | |
51 | VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN and VHOST_GET_VRING_ENDIAN ioctls. | |
52 | ||
53 | This is only useful on a few platforms (ppc64 and arm64). Since it | |
54 | adds some overhead, it is disabled by default. | |
