Hi Andrei, > The UPB team made a revision for the bhyve on arm/arm64 on phabricator[1]. > > Any feedback is greatly appreciated. > > [1] https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26976 <https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26976>; Thanks for putting up the review: that is a sizeable amount of work. I'd suggest removing 32-bit host support from the review to reduce the size. Note that Linux/KVM has dropped 32-bit host support (see the thread at https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/kvm/cover/20200210141324.21090-1-maz@kernel.org/), and the same reasons would apply to FreeBSD. If there is interest it could be resurrected at a later time. The MI/MD split could be done independently of this. It has been talked about for a long while, so I'll commit to doing this in the existing amd64 codebase. The ARM work could then be rebased into that. Also, any host platform support, such as the ARM simulator or EspressoBin, could be split out since it's independent of the hypervisor portion. later, Peter.
