How to create out-of-tree QEMU devices?

Question

Two possible mechanisms come to mind:

• IPC like the existing QMP and QAPI
• QEMU loads a shared library plugin that contains the model

Req

Answer 1

This create out of tree PCI device , it just display device in lspci.. It will ease faster PCI driver implementation as it will act as module, can we extend this to to have similar functionality as edu-pci of QEMU.?
