There is an interest on Arm to support virtio on Xen. This would allow us to
leverage existing PV protocols (e.g virgil 3d) and offering an easy way for
users to migrate to Xen.

The topics expected to be discussed during the sessions are:

- Transport to be used
- How to prevent backend to access all the guest memory
- Sketch a plan and potential contributors

   - How to prevent backend to access all the guest memory
   - Sketch a plan and potential contributors
