--- Comment #3 from Peter Grehan <grehan at FreeBSD.org> ---
Thanks for this work.

Unfortunately, there are a number of other changes in bhyve that need to be
done before it can be run as non-root. Sandboxing the process with capscium and
other means is probably mandatory, but there is also the issue of accounting
for the use of guest memory in process resources, and destroying this on
process exit.

However, the work you've done with creating the VM through something other than
sysctl is the right way to do it, and a modified version of that will show up
at some point.
