Hermetic virtio-vsock in QEMU

Hi Peter, Alex and QEMU,

I work in Android Studio Emulator and we use virtio-vsock to emulate devices (e.g. sensors) which live in the Emulator binary. We need to run on Windows and in environments without CONFIG_VHOST_VSOCK, that is why we cannot use vhost-vsock and invented our implementation. I tried to grep the QEMU8 sources and I believe virtio-vsock is not available there.

Do you think it is a good idea to implement virtio-vsock in QEMU (e.g. to run on Windows)? If the answer is yes, could you please point where I could start to build an upstreamable solution (not Android Emulator specific)? It is not clear to me how we should make the device available for clients (sensors, modem, adb, etc) in a generic way.

Thank you.

Regards,
Roman.
