What's the status of the qemu aarch64 target? I was just reading through the related linaro tickets: http://cards.linaro.org/browse/CARD-215 http://cards.linaro.org/browse/VIRT-36 but I can't really figure out where/if the development is happening, and the ticket seems to be blocked by "availability of A64 instruction set documentation".
