Nb. minor nit: ioemu is used in two contexts. One is the "ioemu"
option
specified in a domain config file - this is deprecated as it''s no
longer
necessary (AFAIK HVM guests are exported both emulated and PV versions of
devices so they can use whichever they want. They need to boot from an
emulated one initially.).
The other is as a name for the "device models" which provide the
emulation of
PC hardware. This emulation isn''t deprecated, although the way it
operates
may change in the future.
HTH,
Cheers,
