Hi Fuad,

Out of curiosity, when testing pKVM, what VMM do you use? Also, can you
describe what a "dummy pVM" is? Is it a just pVM which is not actually
protected? How similar is a pVM to a typical VIRTIO-using VM? Actually,
maybe I should just ask if there are instructions for playing with pKVM
somewhere that I could get a pointer to.

Thanks,
drew
