This is a virtual device, emulated in VM as PCI device, right?
If so what emulates it, I mean can we use QEMU for it?
And is there a kernel supported backend, as virtio has vhost?

This is an alternative to virtio, and it would be good to document
pros/cons of this device/approach, to help users to chose one or other.
Is "support higher network bandwidths" means this device is faster than
virtio? Is there any performance report?
Aren't there any other notable difference?
I think better to document as much as possible, cc'ed more virtio people.
