1 config VHOST_NET
2 tristate "Host kernel accelerator for virtio net"
3 depends on NET && EVENTFD && (TUN || !TUN) && (TAP || !TAP)
4 select VHOST
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.

10 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
11 be called vhost_net.
12
13 config VHOST_SCSI
14 tristate "VHOST_SCSI TCM fabric driver"
15 depends on TARGET_CORE && EVENTFD && m
16 select VHOST
17 default n
18 ---help---
19 Say M here to enable the vhost_scsi TCM fabric module
20 for use with virtio-scsi guests
21
22 config VHOST_VSOCK
23 tristate "vhost virtio-vsock driver"
24 depends on VSOCKETS && EVENTFD
25 select VIRTIO_VSOCKETS_COMMON
26 select VHOST
27 default n
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.
32
33 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
34 vhost_vsock.
35
36 config VHOST
37 tristate
38 ---help---
39 This option is selected by any driver which needs to access
40 the core of vhost.
41
42 config VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY
43 bool "Cross-endian support for vhost"
44 default n
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.
54
55 If unsure, say "N".
