These are devices are found in virtual environments, yet by -design they are not all that different from physical devices, and this -document treats them as such. This allows the guest to use standard -drivers and discovery mechanisms. - -The purpose of virtio and this specification is that virtual -environments and guests should have a straightforward, efficient, -standard and extensible mechanism for virtual devices, rather -than boutique per-environment or per-OS mechanisms. +\input{abstract.tex} Straightforward: Virtio devices use normal bus mechanisms of interrupts and DMA which should be familiar to any device driver -- cgit v1.2.3
