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

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

33 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called | |
34 | vhost_vsock. | |

39 | This option is selected by any driver which needs to access | |
40 | the core of vhost. | |

43 | bool "Cross-endian support for vhost" | |

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

55 | If unsure, say "N". |
