2config VHOST_IOTLB
3	tristate

5	  Generic IOTLB implementation for vhost and vringh.
6	  This option is selected by any driver which needs to support
7	  an IOMMU in software.

9config VHOST_RING
10	tristate
11	select VHOST_IOTLB
12	help
13	  This option is selected by any driver which needs to access
14	  the host side of a virtio ring.

20config VHOST
21	tristate

37	select VHOST
38	help
39	  This kernel module can be loaded in host kernel to accelerate
40	  guest networking with virtio_net. Not to be confused with virtio_net
41	  module itself which needs to be loaded in guest kernel.
42
43	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
44	  be called vhost_net.

46config VHOST_SCSI
47	tristate "VHOST_SCSI TCM fabric driver"
48	depends on TARGET_CORE && EVENTFD
49	select VHOST
50	default n

52	Say M here to enable the vhost_scsi TCM fabric module
53	for use with virtio-scsi guests

59	select VIRTIO_VSOCKETS_COMMON
60	default n
61	help
62	This kernel module can be loaded in the host kernel to provide AF_VSOCK
63	sockets for communicating with guests.  The guests must have the
64	virtio_transport.ko driver loaded to use the virtio-vsock device.
65
66	To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
67	vhost_vsock.

74	depends on VDPA
75	help
76	  This kernel module can be loaded in host kernel to accelerate
77	  guest virtio devices with the vDPA-based backends.
78
79	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module
80	  will be called vhost_vdpa.
81
82config VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY
83	bool "Cross-endian support for vhost"
84	default n
85	help
86	  This option allows vhost to support guests with a different byte
87	  ordering from host while using legacy virtio.
88
89	  Userspace programs can control the feature using the
90	  VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN and VHOST_GET_VRING_ENDIAN ioctls.
91
92	  This is only useful on a few platforms (ppc64 and arm64). Since it
93	  adds some overhead, it is disabled by default.
94
95	  If unsure, say "N".
