The virtio transport separation in QEMU is something I mean to look into. I've talked with Anthony in the past about the transport (e.g. PCI) providing a virtio bus, which allows us to reuse qdev/QOM in a more natural way. Today the hw/virtio* code is glued together in an ad-hoc way. 9pfs has started to factor out the virtio-9p-pci device. It's time to put a good solution in place for all virtio devices. Stefan
