Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] HW Virtualization Abstraction Layer Work Underway
Pacifica is designed to work on AMD64 and x86-32 architectures.  The
AMD64 processors can run the x86-32 bit OS's natively.  Today, this is a
feature we're including in our AMD64 processors.

Are there ever going to be x86-32-only processors that support VT-x or
Pacifica? I thought that only EM64T and AMD64 processors were going to
have this support.
