Hi Pavel,
Thanks for commenting.
In that case, you will run QEMU, then create containers in the guest.
Do you have an use case for this usage?
Anyway, such a feature depends on how to allocate share memory.
So far, this patch allow you to run both virtio-net 'real' and 'virtual'
PMDs on guest, but it will be changed to remove contiguous memory
restriction.
Could you please see an other thread that we talk about the restriction
in? (I will add you to CC.)
Thanks,
Tetsuya
