Hi Julio
- Host: assign the same CID of VMs running in different network namespaces
this means two VMs running in different namespace can use the same CID?
Exactly.
currently we use VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID to get a unique context ID, is this going to change?
The only change is that the CID is unique in the network namespace domain.
1. Is the VMM (e.g. QEMU) running in a network namespace?
yes, see https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/blob/62cd08044d78912228d9dc800cb1...
2. Is the host application, that use vsock to communicate with the guest, running in the same network namespace?
afaik, no
This could be a problem with the RFC that I sent, because we allow only the processes in the same netns of the VMM, to communicate with the guest. Do you think could be an easy change in the Kata runtime? I need to look better, but if you already know the answer you'll save me some time :)
3. Is the agent in the guest running outside a netns (default init_netns)?
yes
This is nice. Thank you very much, Stefano
