+Check basic vfio-user-pci client functionality. The test starts two VMs:
+
+ - the server VM runs the libvfio-user "gpio" example server inside it,
+ piping vfio-user traffic between a local UNIX socket and a virtio-serial
+ port. On the host, the virtio-serial port is backed by a local socket.
+
+ - the client VM loads the gpio-pci-idio-16 kernel module, with the
+ vfio-user client connecting to the above local UNIX socket.
+
+This way, we don't depend on trying to run a vfio-user server on the host
+itself.
+
+Once both VMs are running, we run some basic configuration on the gpio device
+and verify that the server is logging the expected out. As this is consistent
+given the same VM images, we just do a simple direct comparison.
