Software-implemented hardware fault-tolerance is on the Xen
research roadmap.
It basically just requires deterministic execution and event
injection. Doing this for uniprocessor guests is fairly straight
forward. Doing it for SMP guests (with decent performance) is
going to be a huge challenge, as determinism is hard to achieve. We're
looking in to it...
