[PATCH v5 00/19] vfio-user client

Posted by John Levon 4 months, 3 weeks ago

The series contains an implementation of a vfio-user client in QEMU.

The vfio-user protocol allows for implementing (PCI) devices in another
userspace process; SPDK is one example, which includes a virtual NVMe
implementation.

The vfio-user framework consists of 3 parts:
 1) The VFIO user protocol specification.
 2) A client - the VFIO device in QEMU that encapsulates VFIO messages
    and sends them to the server.
 3) A server - a remote process that emulates a device.

This patchset implements parts 1 and 2.

It has been tested against libvfio-user test servers as well as SPDK.
A functional test is still being worked on.

A previous version of this series can be found at
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20250619133154.264786-1-john.levon@nutanix.com/

Changes since last series:

 - fixed SPDX identifier nits
 - code review changes for error handling

thanks
