Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] Is there a reason why Xen supports NMI reports to dom0 but not to domU
User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/12.19.0.090515
Dom0 manages the host platform, whereas this is abstracted from domUs. So
there's not necessarily any reason to want to pass through host NMI events
to domU.
