A higher performance of the VM as opposed to running it strictly
in full emulation mode in user space.
Here is the technical page of the project:
http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/kqemu-tech.html
Maybe it just can't be done, I don't know the internal architecture
of the hypervisor to make that call.
At a minimum how about putting back in the full emulation features
of qemu so one can run and manage a fully emulated VM in Xen
without having to make any changes to the system. Then maybe
some brilliant mind can figure a way to make it run better.
