In fact - see above - the discussed userspace > exposure made me consider this option. I would think twice before introducing QEMU on Xen on ARM for many reasons.

We could have an extremely simple clock that only takes one or two commands. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
