No, we don't support lookback in Linux VM, at least for now. In our Linux implementation, Linux VM can only connect to the host, and here when Linux VM calls connect(), I treat VMADDR_CID_ANY the same as VMADDR_CID_HOST. > > + VMADDR_CID_HOST, > > + }; > > + int i; > > + > > + /* The host's port range [MIN_HOST_EPHEMERAL_PORT, 0xFFFFFFFF) > is > > + * reserved as ephemeral ports, which are used as the host's ports > > + * when the host initiates connections. > > + */ > > + if (port > MAX_HOST_LISTEN_PORT) > > + return false; > > Without this if statement the guest will attempt to connect.

To use the vsock common infrastructure, we have to map Hyper-V's GUID <VM_ID, Service_ID> to int <cid, port>, and hence we must limit the port range we can listen() on to [0, MAX_LISTEN_PORT], i.e. we can only use half of the whole 32-bit port space for listen(). This is detailed in the long comments starting at about Line 100. > ...but hardcode this knowledge into the guest driver? I'd like the guest's connect() to fail immediately here. IMO this is better than a connect timeout. :-) Thanks, -- Dexuan
