Hi! 

The default size for virtio-blk seems to be 256 ring entries, which
translates to 6668 bytes for the split ring(s). The queue size is user
configurable, and guest, in theory, can decide to have a smaller queue.
The indirect descriptors are allocated separately, and bounced via
swiotlb in case of secure guests.

Regards,
Halil
