+## MTRR ##
+
+### Unprivileged guests ###
+
+PVH guests are booted with the default MTRR type set to write-back and MTRR
+enabled. This allows DomUs to start with a sane MTRR state. Note that this will
+have to be revisited when pci-passthrough is added to PVH in order to set MMIO
+regions as UC.
+
+### Hardware domain ###
+
+A PVH hardware domain is booted with the same MTRR state as the one found on
+the host. This is done because the hardware domain memory map is already a
+modified copy of the host memory map, so the same MTRR setup should work.
