[fedora-virt] qemu xen?

[Tom Horsley]

Just a completely off the wall question here:

Is anyone working on what might be called qemu-xen?

The idea would be for yet another emulation mode in
qemu where qemu would provide an environment that looked
(to the virtual machine) as if it were running
paravirt under Xen.

But instead of the host needing to run the hypervisor,
the hypervisor layer is being emulated by qemu
instead as an ordinary linux process.

Seems like it might be able to be faster than completely
software emulation, yet still support VMs on machines
without the hardware support required for KVM.
