Thanks, I made a patch to solve this on ivshmem-server side

(This probably isn't the right place to bring this up, but...)

Would it make sense to turn ivshmem into a frontend for the hostmem
backend? If we do that, then we can use hugetlbfs backed memory, and
possibly get other benefits as well, right?


Yes, this seems quite simple to do, will be in next update:
