Hi David, Not sure if you had a chance to review this version. Now I have a question: may I split the include/linux/socket.h change and ask you to pre-allocate the number for AF_HYPERV to allow backporting of Hyper-V Sockets to distro kernels, and to make sure that applications using the socket type will work with the backport as well as the upstream kernel? Thanks, -- Dexuan
