CONFIG_VHOST_NET: Host kernel accelerator for virtio net (EXPERIMENTAL)
General informations
The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_VHOST_NET has multiple definitions:
Host kernel accelerator for virtio net (EXPERIMENTAL) found in drivers/vhost/Kconfig
The configuration item CONFIG_VHOST_NET:
- prompt: Host kernel accelerator for virtio net (EXPERIMENTAL)
- type: tristate
- depends on:
CONFIG_NET && CONFIG_EVENTFD && ( CONFIG_TUN || ! CONFIG_TUN ) && ( CONFIG_MACVTAP || ! CONFIG_MACVTAP ) && CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL - defined in drivers/vhost/Kconfig
- found in Linux kernels: 2.6.34–2.6.39, 3.0–3.8
- modules built:
vhost_net
Help text
This kernel module can be loaded in host kernel to accelerate guest networking with virtio_net. Not to be confused with virtio_net module itself which needs to be loaded in guest kernel.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called vhost_net.
