[9fans] Plan 9 on OpenBSD VMM

[jrmu]

Greetings,

I'm trying to get plan 9 (either 4e or 9legacy) to run inside OpenBSD
VMM. Might there be any documentation for how to do this?

I currently am running a patched version of Plan 9 with an ISO prepared
for me by a friend, but I'd like to learn how to build this myself.

You need his patches, and virtio drivers.

Note, OpenBSD 7.8 is moving to/has moved to using only Virtio
1.0, and has implemented it with io bars, rather than mem bars;
you may need a change along these lines, if you haven't done it
already:
