QEMU 8.0.0 – A generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer

• libvfio-user

  framework for emulating devices in userspace

The nutanix repo refers to an oracle-led fork of qemu with the full vfio-user implementation built-in:

• qemu

  QEMU git Oracle repository (by oracle)

  

https://github.com/oracle/qemu

So, they're still separate projects, right? Well, kinda. the mainline project has the vfio-user-server implementation merged in:

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com featured

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

But not the client side (vfio-user-pci). So, the feature is half-baked in the mainline project.

I don't know if any of the qemu devs browse HN but it would be nice to hear more about the plans for vfio-user.
