Hi All,

Is there any support for software mailbox communication between PF and VF d=
river in kvm ?

As per the following link:
https://www.linux-kvm.org/images/6/6a/KvmForum2008$kdf2008_7.pdf

It says that for software based virtual mailbox we require SR-PCIM support.

So for this purpose is SR-PCIM implemented as part of KVM ?
Or is there any other method that KVM provides for communication between PF=
 & VF ?

Thanks & regards,
Bharat
