Package `vsock` provides access to Linux VM sockets (`AF_VSOCK`) for

communication between a hypervisor and its virtual machines.  MIT Licensed.

For more information about VM sockets, see my blog about

## Stability

See the [CHANGELOG](./CHANGELOG.md) file for a description of changes between

releases.

This package has a stable v1 API and any future breaking changes will prompt

the release of a new major version. Features and bug fixes will continue to

occur in the v1.x.x series.

This package only supports the two most recent major versions of Go, mirroring

Go's own release policy. Older versions of Go may lack critical features and bug

fixes which are necessary for this package to function correctly.
