Hi, Thanks for your reply.
I am a graduate student at Stony Brook University and am working on design and implementation of hypervisors for OSCAR lab ( http://oscar.cs.stonybrook.edu/). Currently I am working on implementing emulation of Nested Page Tables in QEMU as present in AMD-V architectures. I would like to know if the QEMU team will be interested in having a patch which emulates the Nested Page Table and other hardware virtualization techniques supported by AMD-V or Intel-VT atchitectures. I would love to help in maintenance of my patch or any other issues in the QEMU in future as well. I would also like to know if there is any chance that this can become a part of Google Summer of Code 2012.
