tokio-vsock
Asynchronous Virtio socket support for Rust. The implementation is
based off of Tokio and Mio's TCPListener
and TCPStream
interfaces.
tokio-vsock is for the most part pre-alpha quality, so there are probably sharp edges. Please test it thoroughly before using in production. Happy to receive pull requests and issue reports.
Use Cases
The most common use case for tokio-vsock would be writing agents for microvm applications. Examples would include container runtimes.
Usage
Refer to the crate documentation.
