Hi Michael, When you talk about VFIO in guest, is it with a purely emulated IOMMU in Qemu? Also, I am not clear on the following points: 1. How transient memory would be mapped using BAR in the backend VM 2. How would the backend VM update the dirty page bitmap for the frontend VM Regards Varun > -----Original Message----- > From: qemu-devel-bounces+varun.sethi=freescale.com at nongnu.org

Hi Michael, Looks like the discussions tapered off, but do you have a plan to implement this if people are eventually fine with it? We want to extend this to support multiple VMs. On Mon, Aug 31, 2015 at 11:35 AM, Nakajima, Jun <jun.nakajima at intel.com> wrote: > On Mon, Aug 31, 2015 at 7:11 AM, Michael S.
