Hi,
We wanted to check if it’s possible to specify a disk’s target as nvme (so that the disk shows up as a nvme disk to the guest VM).
Per libvirt documentation it looks like (since Libvirt 6.0.0) we can specify the disk type as nvme and disks source as a nvme. But the documentation does not say anything about being specify the disk’s target as nvme. Is it possible to present the disk to the guest as a nvme disk, if so how?
NVMe device emulation is not supported at this point. I'm not even sure what the state of the feature in qemu upstream is. If you have a real NVMe device, you can obviously use PCI device assignment with it to pass it to the guest os.
