Yeah, we can go with your patches and leave FD passing for future work. It's orthogonal after all. In the end we can have (in the order of precedence): 1) new cmd line argument, say: qemu-system-x86_64 -userfaultfd fd=5 # where FD 5 is passed by libvirt when exec()-ing qemu, just like other FDs, e.g. -chardev socket,fd=XXX 2) your patches, where qemu opens /dev/userfaultfd 3) current behavior, userfaultfd syscall Michal
