Hi Joe,
Thank you for the suggestions (again)! :-)

I'll change them to static inlines.

I'll change to something like this:

+#define HVSOCK_MAX_SND_SIZE_BY_VM (1024 * 4)
struct hvsock_send_buf {
struct vmpipe_proto_header hdr;
- u8 buf[PAGE_SIZE];
+ u8 buf[HVSOCK_MAX_SND_SIZE_BY_VM];
};

I suppose you meant I should change
/* This is ...
to
/*
* This is ...
I'll fix this.

Yes. At the end of the file, there is a line

No. In hvsock_create(), hvsock_proto is passed to sk_alloc(), which requires
a non-const argument.

I'll fix this.
