+  When the ``VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_CONFIGURE_MEM_SLOTS`` protocol
+  feature has been successfully negotiated, this message is submitted
+  by master to the slave. The slave should return the message with a
+  u64 payload containing the maximum number of memory slots for
+  QEMU to expose to the guest. The value returned by the backend
+  will be capped at the maximum number of ram slots which can be
+  supported by the target platform.
