It is behind the needs-to-be committed work I have in projects/virtio [1] and user/bryanv/vtnetmq [2] branches, and supporting MMIO. I hadn't looked yet on how easily the VirtIO serial fits it with how FreeBSD does things. The VirtIO spec is written with mostly Linux in mind and usually takes varying amounts of extra effort to adapt to FreeBSD.
