Maybe these would be appropriate as QEMU projects? One possible project would be to add zoned device support to libblkio and all its drivers [2]. This would allow QEMU to use zoned vhost-user-blk devices, for instance (once general zoned device support lands [3]). Another idea would be to add an NVMe driver to libblkio that internally relies on xNVMe [4, 5]. This would enable QEMU users to use the NVMe drivers from SPDK or libvfn.
