Then, using this type of vsock channel, vsock communication between sibling VMs can be built on top of it. Changelog v1 -> v2 * New patch in v2, it was split from the first patch in the series. * Remove the default value for the vsock flags field. * Update the naming for the vsock flag to "VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST".
