Hi MST, Looking at the kernel commit log, I see that commit c9ce42f72fd0ba180fd35539829e4139dca31494 introduced support for a configurable number of regions in vhost, but vhost-user is still limited to 8 slots. Is there a reason for that? Would you consider a patch to either statically increase the number of vhost-user slots (to something like 64?) or define some protocol allowing the number of slots to be negotiated? Apologies if this has already been answered. I briefly looked through the mailing list archive and couldn’t find anything obvious. Thanks, Raphael
