When we want to create a full VirtIO based machine, we're still missing graphics output. Fortunately, Linux provides us with most of the frameworks to render text and everything, we only need to implement a transport. So this is a frame buffer backend written for VirtIO. Using this and my patch to qemu, you can use paravirtualized graphics.
What does this do that cirrus and/or vmware-vga don't?
This is especially important on machines that can't do MMIO, as all current graphics implementations qemu emulates I'm aware of so far fail here.
