Virtio HAB device is an inter-VM IPC and shared-memory device intended for multi-VM systems. Virtio HAB provides named service channels between guest VMs and primary/service VM, primarily targeting platform-specific hardware accelerators and system services (deployed in Qualcomm automotive platforms). It also supports bi-directional zero-copy shared-memory lifecycle operations (export/unexport/import/unimport). The driver is shipping in Qualcomm automotive IVI products, supports Gunyah, QNX, Green Hills, Red Bend and Xen hypervisors (KVM in progress), and is being prepared for Linux kernel upstreaming.
