Hi,
Going back to this merged commit,

> Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v8 2/2] examples/vdpa: introduce a new sample
> for vDPA
>
> The vdpa sample application creates vhost-user sockets by using the vDPA
> backend. vDPA stands for vhost Data Path Acceleration which utilizes virtio
> ring compatible devices to serve virtio driver directly to enable datapath
> acceleration. As vDPA driver can help to set up vhost datapath, this
> application doesn't need to launch dedicated worker threads for vhost
> enqueue/dequeue operations.

It doesn't seems like qemu has the id=vdpa and netdev=vdpa options.
Grepping vdpa on qemu returns empty.
Am using QEMU v3.1.0-513-gfb177a0. Commit head is fb177a036f2e ("MAINTAINERS:
Mark RISC-V as Supported").
Did I missed anything?
