Sorry, but could you please clarify to me what usage model you're referring to exactly, and why you think it's weird? It's just that we have covered a few things in this thread, and to me it's not clear if you're referring to protected VMs sharing memory, or being able to (conditionally) map a VM's memory that's backed by guest_memfd(), or if it's the Exclusive pin. Thank you, /fuad
