[vbox-dev] Shared memory driver

[Alizée Penel]

Hi,

I am working for Genymobile which produces Genymotion Android emulator
(https://www.genymotion.com/features/), based on VirtualBox.

For performance needs, we have to implement a VirtualBox shared memory
driver between guests and the host. We will intent to develop a driver
comparable to the QEMU pipe, implemented by the Google team
(https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/qemu/+/emu-master-dev/docs/ANDROID-QEMU-PIPE.TXT).

We may need a litte help from you.

Would you be interessed by this feature ? If we develop a such driver,
would you put it upstream ?

As far went our researches in VirtualBox sources, it seems that HGSMI
interface is what we need. Am I wrong ?

Best regards,
