Hi Cam,

Did the UIO dirver for IVSHMEM merged into the kernel?

Because I met the below problem:

I met a problem when I tried to use IVSHMEM. Command lspci does not show the IVSHMEM device.
Below is the configuration from my side:

  1. guest vm xml configuration.
  <shmem name='ivshmem'>
      <model type='ivshmem-plain'/>
      <size unit='M'>2</size>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x10' function='0x0'/>
    </shmem>
  1. after the booting up and I found the qemu commandline ideedly have the device option:
ps aux | grep ivshmem
 /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 
      .......(ignore other options)
-object memory-backend-file,id=shmmem-shmem0,mem-path=/dev/shm/hostmem,size=4194304,share=yes -device ivshmem-plain,id=shmem0,memdev=shmmem-shmem0,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x10
  1. lspci command not shown the device.

  2. lshw command indeedly show the device:

*-memory UNCLAIMED
             description: RAM memory

My host and vm os is ubuntu 20.04 and version is:
#49~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 5 09:57:56 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Also I have asked a question on stackoverflow website, I provide the link for your reference:
