Paaaing hardware to VMs is the "killer app" for VFIO, but VMs (e.g. QEMU) are just normal userspace processes. In other words, VFIO can delegate control of a device to any userspace process, but it's most commonly used for VM

With VFIO, there is increasingly little need for writing in-kernel device drivers. You can do everything in userspace with better DX and without having to deal with kernel API breakage. If you want to try out VFIO, you could try writing a u

All std data structures (vector, map, etc.) have a copy constructor, and running it can be arbitrarily expensive.
