libvirt users - Dec 2017 - Inter Shared Memory ( Ivshmem ) : Cannot Bind

Hello, friends.
I encounter a problem when i use ivshmem with my guest, my ivshmem server is not
start, and output a error : Example code, do not use in production ,cannot bind.


Detail distribution: 
Today, I know ivshmem from a topic "QEMU version 2.10.93 User
Documentation",
Ivshmem: it can create a shared memory that guest device use, so we can use this
memory to do something ourselves.
First, I create host memory backend:
     -object
memory-backend-file,size=1M,share,mem-path=/dev/shm/ivshmem,id=hostmem
Twice, Bind a shared memory device to my guest:
    -device ivshmem-plain,memdev=hostmem
Then I boot ivshmem servi
    ivshmem-server -p /var/run/ivshmem-server.pid  -S /tmp/ivshmem_socket  -M
ivshmem -m /dev/shm -l 1M -n 2
Next time i get this error:
    *** Example code, do not use in production ***
    cannot bind
And i search the problem on google, but nothing to get, hope you can help me
solve it.
following message is my host environment:
    host:  ubuntu 1604
    qemu:  version 2.10.90 (v2.11.0-rc0-dirty)
    libvirt:  libvirtd (libvirt) 3.9.0
    guest:    window 7 professor

You are using plain, but

You are running a server.  This is not how it works.

Looks like you are playing with something that you don't really need,
otherwise
you would do things differetly.  It you are just trying it out, that's fine.
Otherwise make sure it's what you need.  More information on how this hot
mess
works is here:
