[Qemu-devel] Why I advise against using ivshmem
...or
management folks and not really for developers.
ivshmem in particular was disabled even in RHEL7 beta, so you could have
found out about this in December and opened a bug in Bugzilla about it.

The first things to do are:
1) try to understand if there is any value in a simplified shared memory
device with no interrupts (and those no eventfd or uio dependencies, not
even optionally)....

[Qemu-devel] Why I advise against using ivshmem
...thout the out-of-tree packages.
You did not reply to my question: how to get the list of things that
are/will be disabled by Redhat?
About Redhat's QA, I do not care.
About Qemu's QA, I do care ;)
I guess we can combine both. What's about something like:
tests/virtio-net-test.c # qtest_add_func( is a nop)
but for ivshmem
test/ivshmem-test.c
?
would it have any values?
If not, what do you use at Redhat to test Qemu?
