Yes, but this relies on an existing place to plug in the UML side. So, it
works best when you're implementing some sort of device which has a physical

Right now, x86_64 needs work. There's been a bunch of skas0 updates which
x86_64 hasn't kept up with.

It should be. A process can access those pages, but not in a way that would
let them break out.
