Standard: Virtio makes no assumptions about the environment in which
it operates, beyond supporting the bus to which device is attached.
In this specification, virtio

+transport code from the specific virtio drivers: these drivers are shared

Extensible: Virtio devices contain feature bits which are
acknowledged by the guest operating system during device setup.
