Hello,

Just to add my two bits.

I will fully support getting all the necessary parts of ivshmem into tree
where appropriate, both qemu and a driver in Linux.  I understand those
concerns.

I do not have the time to fully maintain ivshmem at the level needed, but I
will help as much as I can.

Sorry for the delay in contributing to this conversation.

Cheers,
Cam
