Thank you Keith for opening the range of DPDK possibilities :) Are you currently working on a poll mode driver for squirrels? How do you poll squirrels? Is it approved by WWF? ;) And more seriously, thank you for allowing us taking a breath in this discussion. I think there is one interesting technological point in this thread. We are discussing about IVSHMEM but its support by Qemu is confused. This feature is not in the MAINTAINERS file of Qemu. Please Qemu maintainers, what is the future of IVSHMEM?
