Hello again!

I am currently using /dev/vmmctl device to allow non-root users to use bhyve as
I described above. Unfortunately, this approach does not allow me to use PCI
devices pass-through, as it demands access to /dev/pci, /dev/io and /dev/mem
(as far as I remember).

After updating to 12.0-RC1 I have noticed, that ntpd uses MAC framework now (I
didn't know about MAC existence before).

Can this approach (writing specific MAC policy module) be used to grant
unprivileged bhyve process access to certain files in /dev ?

What other solutions to this problem could be?
