okay. I'm also thinking if we could have configfs for configuring this. Anyways
we could find different approaches of configuring this.

NTB(HOST1) and virtio ring(1) will be in the same system. So it doesn't have to
use vring. virtio ring(1) is by the virtio device the NTB(HOST1) creates.

okay, I haven't looked at this but the backend of virtio_blk should access an

Got it. My initial design was based on my understanding of your comments [1].

I'll try to create something based on your proposed design here.
