Hi,

May I ask you about the means to control a VM instance. I mean by that
something providing similar features as QEMU's monitor interface along
with QEMU
Machine Protocol (QMP) do. Has it already been decided/designed how bhyve
is going to handle features like a soft start/stop of a VM instance,
hot-plugging of additional blk/net devices, etc?

Regards,
Michal.
