Actually, the new spec does support non-shadow paging. All page table updates are done via the VMI ROM. Normally, these are just normal get/set operations but they could be get/sets with p2m looks. The first version of the spec definitely didn't support non-shadow paging though.

I don't see any hooks for pte reads, which need m2p conversion in a non-shadow environment.

And the documentation is out of whack with the code patches now I look more closely at the mmu patch. VMI_xxxPxExxx functions are not defined in the spec, nor is VMI_AllocatePage.
