Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Add uvirtio for testing
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2020 13:47:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200428204729.64569-1-ytht.net@gmail.com> (raw)

This is a way to create virtio based devices from user space. This is the
background for this patch:

We have some images works fine under qemu, we'd like to also run the same image
on Google Cloud. Currently Google Cloud doesn't support virtio-vga. I had a 
patch to create a virtio-vga from kernel directly:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg248573.html

Then I got feedback from Gerd that maybe it's better to change that to something
like uvirtio. Since I really don't have other use cases for now, I just implemented the minimal stuff which work for my use case.
