I am a member of AMD's Software Research and Development Group. AMD is active in the open source community and is supportive of the Xen project. AMD will be supporting Xen by contributing a port of Xen to AMD's Pacifica technology. Pacifica provides functionality within the microprocessor designed to make virtualization more efficient and secure. It's architecturally very similar to Vanderpool, though it does offer a different feature set and differing implementation, all designed to provide a richer environment for hypervisor-based virtualization. I really can't say more, but AMD expects to publicly release full details of Pacifica in the future - stay tuned. I look forward to interacting with the Xen community as we evolve our processor technologies to provide increasing levels of support for virtualization.
