Xen Arm support

[illegalcoding]

Does FreeBSD support running as a Xen Dom0 or DomU guest on aarch64?

I seriously doubt it. Look at the ports available. We are still on 4.x kernel for amd64.
I was suprised to see edk2 firmware for amd64.

edk2-xen-x64-g202308_5         EDK2 Firmware for xen_x64
xen-guest-tools-4.16.1_2       Xen tools within FreeBSD domU
xen-kernel-4.18.2.20240411     Hypervisor using a microkernel design
xen-tools-4.18.2.20240411_2    Xen Hypervisor management tools

Looks like I am wrong. 4.18 refers to Xen version. Not what I thought.
