Above should try harder to explan what are the things that need to be
scrubbed and why. For example, I personally don't really know what is
the OpenSSL session token example and what makes it vulnerable. I guess
snapshots can attack each other?




Here's a simple example of a workflow that submits transactions
to a database and wants to avoid duplicate transactions.
This does not require overseer magic. It does however require
a correct genid from hypervisor, so no mmap tricks work.



	int genid, oldgenid;
	read(&genid);
start:
	oldgenid = genid;
	transid = submit transaction
	read(&genid);
	if (genid != oldgenid) {
			revert transaction (transid);
			goto start:
	}

If you have ability to do this by communicating with
all processes e.g. through a unix domain socket,
why do you need the rest of the stuff in the kernel?
Quescing is a harder problem than waking up.
