The other wrinkle is that Illumos seems likely to move away from KVM
to FreeBSD's bhyve since it is a much better fit for Illumos. See
https://omniosce.org/info/bhyve for some info.
Both KVM and bhyve seem to currently require Intel (not AMD) CPUs to
work properly. Given that AMD is now competitive again with CPUs, and
given that Joyent is working hard on bhyve, and given that Illumos and
FreeBSD developers have a history of working together, it appears that
bhyve will eventually dominate and KVM will eventually be deprecated.
