From: Elena Ufimtseva <elena.ufimts...@oracle.com>

Hi

This is the v14 of the patchset. Thank you very much for reviewing v13 and
sharing your feedback.

We have addressed all the comments from the v13 review with changelog below:

- [PATCH v14 05/21] multi-process: Add config option for multi-process QEMU
  add config option to disable the feature (--disable-multiprocess).

- [PATCH v14 08/21] multi-process: add qio channel write function
- [PATCH v14 09/21] multi-process: add qio channel read function
  refactor code in qio channel and split in two for read and write.

- [PATCH v14 04/21] socket: export socket_get_fd() function
  export socket_get_fd() and use in remote process with some
  modifications.

In addition, we will be sending a follow-up patch with the acceptance
test that can be used to verify that this feature is working correctly.

>From the v13 review few items are TODOs:
- Prefix log messages with PID in the logging subsystem.
- Refactor the MemoryListener code in vfio-user and multi-process code
  to avoid logic duplication.

To touch upon the history of this project, we posted the Proof Of Concept
patches before the BoF session in 2018. Subsequently, we have posted 13 
versions on the qemu-devel mailing list. You can find them by following the
links below ([1] - [13]). Following people contributed to the design and
implementation of this project:
Jagannathan Raman <jag.ra...@oracle.com>

We would like to thank the QEMU community for your feedback in the
design and implementation of this project. Qemu wiki page:
