VMX(kernel v6.0) supports Notification VM exit feature under commit 2f4073e0.
QEMU supports it as well since v7.2 under commit e2e69f6b.
Add this feature into libvirt now.
An example of Domain XML snippet to configure this feature:
<features>
<kvm>
<notify-vmexit state='on' mode='run'
notify-window='16384'/>
</kvm>
</features>
