Hi,
   I've just pushed a new version of the virtio-fs-dev branch in
  https://gitlab.com/virtio-fs/qemu

This is based off a very recent qemu tree, and we've got some new
virtiofs features in (thanks to all contributors):

  a) A new sandbox option that uses chroot rather than pivot_root
    and namespacing

  b) A mechanism that lets xattr names be translated between the
    host and guest.

  c) an explicit configure option (--enable-virtiofsd) to force
   compilation of virtiofsd - the build system will then tell
   you if you're missing build dependencies rather than quietly
   disabling it.

Dave
