Description Ademar Reis 2016-03-08 17:18:57 UTC 
This is the clone for qemu-kvm (RHEL version, not qemu-kvm-rhev). 

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1291284 +++

Description of problem:

To enable VSOCK support in 7.3, we will need the userspace qemu changes that correspond to the kernel changes in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1291282

These are currently a work in progress[1] but should be picked from upstream qemu when merged.

Comment 2 Ademar Reis 2016-03-15 14:23:01 UTC 
Removing Bug 1308609 from the blockers list. As this particular BZ is for qemu-kvm (RHEL), not qemu-kvm-rhev (layered products).
Comment 3 Stefan Hajnoczi 2017-01-16 16:22:53 UTC 
Investigating backport.
Comment 4 Ian Colle 2017-05-16 19:44:47 UTC 
What did your backport investigation turn up?
Comment 5 Stefan Hajnoczi 2017-05-19 14:33:46 UTC 
This BZ was postponed to RHEL 7.5.  I will do the backport at that time.
Comment 6 Stefan Hajnoczi 2017-11-29 15:24:49 UTC 
virtio-vsock is a qemu-kvm-rhev feature.  It will not be in qemu-kvm in RHEL 7.5.
