Thanks for testing this -- this is a lot closer to working out of the box than I thought we might be :-) I'm tempted to try to put these fixes (and my ptw patchset) into 8.1, but OTOH I suspect work on Realm guests will probably still want to use a bleeding-edge QEMU for other bugs we're going to discover over the next few months, so IDK. We'll see how code review goes on those, I guess. > Running a Realm guest requires components at EL3 and R-EL2.
