README

+ +

Members of the OASIS Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) TC create and manage technical content in this TC GitHub repository ( https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec ) as part of the TC's chartered work (i.e., the program of work and deliverables described in its charter).

+ +

OASIS TC GitHub repositories, as described in GitHub Repositories for OASIS TC Members' Chartered Work, are governed by the OASIS TC Process, IPR Policy, and other policies, similar to TC Wikis, TC JIRA issues tracking instances, TC SVN/Subversion repositories, etc. While they make use of public GitHub repositories, these TC GitHub repositories are distinct from OASIS Open Repositories, which are used for development of open source licensed content.

Description

+ +

This repository includes the authoritative source of the VIRTIO (Virtual I/O) Specification document. VIRTIO document describes the specifications of the "virtio" family of devices. These devices are found in virtual environments, yet by design they look like physical devices to the guest within the virtual machine — and this document treats them as such. This similarity allows the guest to use standard drivers and discovery mechanisms.

+ +

The purpose of virtio and this specification is that virtual environments and guests should have a straightforward, efficient, standard and extensible mechanism for virtual devices, rather than boutique per-environment or per-OS mechanisms.
