Hi there,

You asked if anyone was interested in this, and here I am :)

I would love for this to be in QEMU, and I haven't even used it yet. I've been looking for ages for ways to get better performance out of my KVM macOS VMs on my Late 2012 Mini.

I have limited non-Python programming experience, some experience with patch management and a lot of experience with customer service and reporting useful issues in the community. Would you like me to help review the patches and liaise with people etc to help make this happen? I'll need to test these drivers first of course, but very happy to help if I can.

OK, I will try to push the patches to the community, and will share you the patch link here.

but it still have some rework to do becasue the QEMU code base has changed.

After that pls help to test it
