Windows 11 experiences KVM crashes following the installation of the looking glass shmem device via virt-manager.
I have a functional Windows 11 KVM setup with libvirt and GPU passthrough. However, when I add <shmem name='looking-glass'> <model type='ivshmem-plain'/> <size unit='M'>32</size></shmem> in the devices section of the XML, the hypervisor shuts down and the VM stops immediately without any error. I'm using Arch Linux.
This configuration shows a memory-mapped I/O device named "looking-glass." It uses a 32-bit size, is PCI-based, and is connected to slot 1 on bus 10. The function pointer points to an initialization routine. You added the address line for testing purposes.
