This can be observed in qemu monitor too, info qtree:
dev: ivshmem, id ""
chardev = ""
size = "2048M"
vectors = 1 (0x1)
ioeventfd = false
msi = true
shm = "foo"
role = ""
use64 = 1 (0x1)
addr = 05.0
romfile = ""
rombar = 1 (0x1)
multifunction = false
command_serr_enable = true
class RAM controller, addr 00:05.0, pci id 1af4:1110 (sub 1af4:1100)
bar 0: mem at 0x40000000 [0x400000ff]
bar 2: mem at 0xffffffffffffffff [0x7ffffffe]
Check dmesg, it fails to allocate for me, but with 1G it works (f22
x86_64). I don't know what's the reason behind it.
Note that it's not safe to do hotplug with ivshmem (it may assert in
various ways), I proposed a patch series a few weeks ago, I am going
to send an updated version soon.
