There was another question that went unanswered: > Does anyone care about ivshmem on 32-bit hosts? And I might even double down with "does anyone care about ivshmem on big-endian hosts?" Just defining the protocol to be "64-bit little-endian" would be nice, even if it would break those 2 people that respectively used ivshmem on 32-bit Intel and big-endian PPC. (And maybe also the one guy who used it on 32-bit big-endian PPC!). Paolo
