You don't *have* to use the dedicated virtio-foo-pci device; if you like you can manually plug together the virtio-pci transport and the virtio-foo-device backend yourself. The 'fused' device is just for convenience and compatibility with existing command lines. There is no fused device for virtio-mmio because the board itself creates the transport devices so the user only needs to create the backends (which then auto-plug into the virtio bus). thanks -- PMM
