The git repo for the virtio drivers only contains msvc project files, so
in order to get the virtio drivers built using the mingw-w64
cross-compiler would require new Makefile's to be written.
The mingw-w64 compiler which is currently in Fedora should be capable of
building virtio as the DDK pieces are also bundled (in the
folder /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/ddk).
I just took a quick attempt to manually compile these drivers using the
mingw-w64 compiler in Fedora and I think it should be possible.
Do you happen to have a log of these attempts? You just quickly passed the
driver C files to mingw-gcc, or did you do something more sophisticated?
Thanks,
