Sure.

1. make the guest kernel based on your tree, the top commit is
    10d7902fa0e82b (dax: unmap/truncate on device shutdown) and
    the config file can be found in this thread.

2. add guest kernel command line: memmap=6G!10G

3: start the guest:
    x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -machine pc,nvdimm --enable-kvm \
    -smp 16 -m 32G,maxmem=100G,slots=100 /other/VMs/centos6.img -monitor stdio

4: in guest:
    mkfs.ext4 /dev/pmem0
    mount -o dax /dev/pmem0  /mnt/pmem/
    echo > /mnt/pmem/xxx
    ./mmap /mnt/pmem/xxx
    ./read /mnt/pmem/xxx

   The source code of mmap and read has been attached in this mail.

   Hopefully, you can detect the error triggered by read test.

Thanks!
