Thank you for your response. Indeed, it seems that trying to circumvent the 
functionalities offered by the Plug-in API will not allow me to properly 
achieve the modeling of my device. As of now I have a pretty tight schedule but 
in the near future, I will implement my MMIO device using the appropriate API ; 
I found the source code of the QEMU educational PCI device.

Thanks for your help, everyone :)
