virtio-loopback transport repository

This repository includes the beta version of the "virtio_loopback_transport" driver which is part of the Virtio Loopback Design presented in this document. This work carried on by Virtual Open Systems in the Automotive Grade Linux community.

As described in the design document, the transport is only a part of a more complex architecture. If you want to see the implementation and build the other components, refer to the virtio-loopback docs repository.

In order to build this project the next commands need to be used: - make for x86 - make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- for arm64
