(XEN) ***************************************************
(XEN) WARNING: CONSOLE OUTPUT IS SYNCHRONOUS
(XEN) This option is intended to aid debugging of Xen by ensuring
(XEN) that all output is synchronously delivered on the serial line.
(XEN) However it can introduce SIGNIFICANT latencies and affect
(XEN) timekeeping. It is NOT recommended for production use!
(XEN) ***************************************************
(XEN) WARNING: HVM FORCED EMULATION PREFIX IS AVAILABLE
(XEN) This option is *ONLY* intended to aid testing of Xen.
(XEN) It has implications on the security of the system.
