Hi Gary, I'm working with Intel to answer your questions. Essentially we want to provide the least amount of access possible for this daemon to do its job.
For starting the daemon, I'm guessing that we'll have to create something similar to usr/src/cmd/svc/profile/platform_SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise.xml for these x86 machines since we want the service to be enabled by default on the platforms that support it. Does anyone have any recommendation about who to talk to about how to get this done?
