I thought that after being on a track with virtio drivers, I will go with doing
some work on check pointing vkernel. After that we can move forward with vkernel
migration using opportunistic replay approach as we have the checkpoints
generated. But all this depends on your guidance, I can go the way you guys
suggest.
