Hi Gerd,

We didn't catch up with updating the newest kvmgt code accordingly,
partly because we are preparing the 'final' version to be upstreamed.

Will update a topic/gvt-next-kvmgt-2016-12-06 today, sorry for the
inconvenience :)

The getting kvm instance code is missing in that branch, will be
contained in the new one.

No, this version doesn't have dma-buf support yet, we were using x11vnc
in guest to test it internally. I'll include you in the igvt-g-dev
mailing list for further discussion :)
