    [$] Virtio without the "virt"
    When virtio
    was merged in Linux v2.6.24, its author, Rusty Russell, described
    the goal     as being for "common drivers to be efficiently used
    across most virtual I/O
    mechanisms    ". Today, much progress has been made toward that goal, with virtio
    supported by multiple hypervisors and guest drivers shipped by many operating
    systems. But these applications of virtio are implemented in software, whereas
    Michael Tsirkin's "VirtIO
    without the Virt    " talk at KVM Forum 2019 laid out how
    to implement virtio in hardware.
