+ bool "Cross-endian support for vhost"
+ default n
+ ---help---
+ This option allows vhost to support guests with a different byte
+ ordering from host while using legacy virtio.
+
+ Userspace programs can control the feature using the
+ VHOST_SET_VRING_ENDIAN and VHOST_GET_VRING_ENDIAN ioctls.
+
+ This is only useful on a few platforms (ppc64 and arm64). Since it
+ adds some overhead, it is disabled by default.
+
+ If unsure, say "N".
