Then we need to attach this device to vdpa bus via vdpa tool [1]:

# vdpa dev add vduse-null mgmtdev vduse

With the virtio-vdpa module loaded, we will see the block device in host.

And if we'd like to use it in a VM, we need to load the vhost-vdpa
module (a /dev/vhost-vdpa-0 char device will be presented) and build a
new qemu binary with the source code in
https://github.com/bytedance/qemu/tree/vhost-vdpa-blk. Then we can use
the below command line to start a VM with the vhost-vdpa-blk device:

./qemu-system-x86_64 -M pc -cpu host --enable-kvm -smp 8 \
-m 4G -object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=4G,mem-path=/dev/shm,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=mem -monitor vc -serial stdio -no-user-config -nodefaults \
-vnc 0.0.0.0:1 -k en-us -vga cirrus \
-device vhost-vdpa-blk-pci,num-queues=1,vdpa-dev=/dev/vhost-vdpa-0
