No worries, I hope to get some feedbacks and to have discussion on the topic from some other people as well FYI, as a similar Pull request exists on OpenAMP github, I requsted in the OpenAMP PR to centralize all the discussions around the design choice in this thread. The aim is that we have a single discussion thread to find a consensus on the way of implementing such service on virtio backend. Creating a specific rpmsg service is one approach, some other can exist...
