#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Virtio-Net Transform — Use virtio-net TX/RX rings as a computation pipeline. Implements three exploitable primitives from the virtio-net spec: 1. HASH_REPORT — host writes Toeplitz RSS hash into RX header 2. TSO gso_size — host splits large buffer via TCP segmentation offload 3. MRG_RXBUF — host merges multiple RX buffers (aggregation) This is NOT a network driver. It is a computation substrate that happens to use the virtio-net ring as its DMA mailbox. The host QEMU backend processes packets without knowing it is being used for computation. Minimal (~200 lines of C, no kernel modules needed). Runs in any QEMU/firecracker microVM with /dev/vfio or raw PCI BAR access. Shim boundary: I/O only. No decision logic. All computation mapping decisions belong in Lean (Semantics.MeshRouting and future VirtioNet modules).
