https://github.com/kvmtool/kvmtool indeed has a 9p server, I think I
used to run it ages ago.
I'll give it a fresh spin, thanks for the reminder.
For this one it defines VIRTQUEUE_NUM to 128, so not quite 1024.

oh the 9p part is client code?
the readme says it's a server:
"It includes a complete hypervisor, based on xhyve/bhyve"
but I can't run it anyway, so I didn't check very hard.

huh...
Well, as long as msize is set I assume it'll work out anyway? How does
virtio queue size work with e.g. parallel messages?
Anyway, even if the negotiation part gets done servers won't all get
implemented in a day, so we need to think of other servers a bit..
