[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 6/6] vhost-user: add VFIO based accelerators support

2018-03-19 Thread Tiwei Bie
This patch does some small extensions to vhost-user protocol to support VFIO based accelerators, and makes it possible to get the similar performance of VFIO based PCI passthru while keeping the virtio device emulation in QEMU. Any virtio ring compatible devices potentially can be used as the vhos
