Hi,

I've been working toward porting OpenBSD/amd64 for the Xen Virtual Machine Monitor for a few months.
It's not 100% complete, but most is already working for domU.

Here's a list of the current issues/missing things:
- virtual NIC driver is not fonctionnal, some part of the code still needs to be fixed for packet transfer from/to Xen to work. - events/clock issue: there seems to be a race condition leading to clock not ticking, hence putting system to sleep till a keyboard/network/disk interrupt is received.
- SMP is currently not supported.

I'll make a kernel binary, a disk image and sources available shortly.

Regards,
Mathieu
