Hello all,

I am running the QEMU stable version of 3.0 in KVM mode with the host as
well as target architecture being x86_64. I am using a virtio-net device
using the command line -

-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=tap1,mac=00:00:00:00:00:00


I have been trying to record all the virtqueue kicks that happen when the
virtio driver notifies QEMU by doing a register write. I know that, a
virtqueue kick, essentially means that there is a VMEXIT. I'd like to know
which register does the Virtqueue kick operation write to.

Where in the source code can I find the virtqueue kick operation actually
writing to a register? I have specifically tried putting breakpoints at
*virtio_pci_device_write* and *virtio_pci_isr_write*, but I do not see
these functions getting triggered.

Best Regards,
Arnab
