Hi Tristan,
I haven't had a chance to try this yet, but has any resolution been
reached between this approach versus the HVM stub domain? If I
understand correctly, they seem to have similar goals. It seems like
Samuel has been making forward progress on the stub approach. Does this
provide more functionality? more performance? less maintenance? If we
take a different approach than x86, I want to make sure it's justified.
Thanks,
Alex
