take whatever you want to access, move it to a buffer with iov_to_buf
then access the buffer.

reverse is even easier. put in a buffer, copy with iov_from_buf.

yes but driver is free to change this.
Isn't there a spec for this device to consult?
Sending that to virtio tc will be needed before we add this to qemu.
