Interface IOProxy

internal/vm/ioproxy.go:35–46

IOProxy is an interface to a particular implementation for initializing and copying the stdio of a process running in a VM. All its methods are unexported as they are used only internally. The interface exists just to give outside callers a choice of implementation when setting up a process.

// to give outside callers a choice of implementation when setting up a
// process.
type IOProxy interface {
	// start should begin initialization of stdio proxying for the provided
	// process. It returns two channels, one to indicate io initialization
	// is completed and one to indicate io copying is completed.
	start(proc *vmProc) (ioInitDone <-chan error, ioCopyDone <-chan error)

	// Close the proxy.
	Close()

	// IsOpen returns true if the proxy hasn't been closed.
	IsOpen() bool
}

// IOConnector is function that begins initializing an IO connection (i.e.
// vsock, FIFO, etc.). It returns a channel that should be published to with
