A feature like > that might help push it forward. It would require enlightenment of the guest code. We have two options. Simple one is to limit enabling to the guest kernel, but it would require non-destructive conversion between shared->private memory. This does not seem to be compatible with current design. Other option is get memory private from time 0 of VM boot, but it requires modification of virtual BIOS to setup shared ranges as needed. I'm not sure if anybody volunteer to work on BIOS code to make it happen. Hm. -- Kirill A. Shutemov
