Why would we want a PCI interface to do balooning? All we need is a
simple interface. It _is_ a mess for platforms that don't have PCI.
And it is a mess for paravirtulaization - will we crea

I agree. We need a Lego set containing the following bricks:
- bus interfaces: pci bus, hypercall-based

Hi,
I just tried kvm-27 with the following result when starting a vm.
