We've addressed this with the latest patch series, which I sent earlier today. vSockets now has support for pluggable transports, of which VMCI happens to be the first; all transport code is separated out into its own module. So the core is now hypervisor neutral. Given that, would you be willing to re-consider it, please? If at all possible, we'd like to make the current merge window.
Thanks so much! - Andy
