This document describes technical context and analysis to support a proposal for development of a new Linux device driver destined for mainline Linux and use by OpenXT, to introduce Hypervisor-Mediated data eXchange (HMX) into the data transport of the popular VirtIO suite of Linux virtual device drivers, by leveraging Argo in Xen.

Christopher is the primary author of this version of this document.
