Hi,
I wanted to use tcp sockets from Device Emulation (eg. DevAHCI.cpp) and connect
to a socket server running on one of the Guest OS or to another system on the
network. I have following questions -
1. Would this kind of socket comm possible from Device Emulation code?
2. As device emulation code runs in Ring0 mode, if I try to even include
iprt/sockets.h file, it complains that RTSocket APIs are not available in
Ring-0 context. If that is so, what sockets can I use from within Device
Emulation code?
3. How do I know which code of Virtualbox is running in Ring0 and which is
running in Ring3? I was under the impression that the vbox host drivers that
are built and installed on the host OS is the only code that runs in Ring0 and
everything else should be Ring3.
4. Is there any sample code of this socket comm that can be used from device
emulation in virtualbox, that you can point me to?.
Thanks.
Arpit.
