We not have the vdev buffer in resource table, so I added in device tree, see below:

imx8qm_cm40: imx8qm_cm4@0 {
compatible = "fsl,imx8qm-cm4";
rsc-da = <0x90000000>;
mbox-names = "tx", "rx", "rxdb";
mboxes = <&lsio_mu5 0 1
&lsio_mu5 1 1
&lsio_mu5 3 1>;
mub-partition = <3>;
memory-region = <&vdev0vring0>, <&vdev0vring1>, <&vdevbuffer>,
<&vdev1vring0>, <&vdev1vring1>;
core-index = <0>;
core-id = <IMX_SC_R_M4_0_PID0>;
status = "okay";
power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_M4_0_PID0>,
<&pd IMX_SC_R_M4_0_MU_1A>;
};

imx8qm_cm41: imx8x_cm4@1 {
compatible = "fsl,imx8qm-cm4";
rsc-da = <0x90100000>;
mbox-names = "tx", "rx", "rxdb";
mboxes = <&lsio_mu6 0 1
&lsio_mu6 1 1
&lsio_mu6 3 1>;
mub-partition = <4>;
memory-region = <&vdev2vring0>, <&vdev2vring1>, <&vdevbuffer>,
<&vdev3vring0>, <&vdev3vring1>;
core-index = <1>;
core-id = <IMX_SC_R_M4_1_PID0>;
status = "okay";
power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_M4_1_PID0>,
<&pd IMX_SC_R_M4_1_MU_1A>;
};

vdevbuffer: vdevbuffer {
compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
reg = <0 0x90400000 0 0x100000>;
no-map;
};

I have the upper vdevbuffer node shared between M40 and M41 node.
The vdevbuffer will be used as virtio data buffer.

And I have the following in rproc_add_virtio_dev to share vdevbuffer:
/* Try to find dedicated vdev buffer carveout */
mem = rproc_find_carveout_by_name(rproc, "vdev%dbuffer", rvdev->index);
if (!mem)
mem = rproc_find_carveout_by_name(rproc, "vdevbuffer");


Hope this is clear.

Peng.
