  Description : A virtio-vsock device using the vhost-user protocol.

vhost-device-vsock is a vhost-user device implementation that emulates a
virtio-vsock device, allowing guest applications to use AF_VSOCK sockets to
communicate with host services or daemons. It enables bidirectional
communication between applications running inside a virtual machine (guest) and
applications running on the host or other VMs.

This package is useful for developers and users who need to establish
communication channels between virtual machines and the host system,
particularly in scenarios involving virtualization.

Cheers,

Miao Wang
