by access to 0xc000 port in VMX, qemu will blocked there until it finished. And during that block, there are extra dom switches between dom0 and idle domain, and VMX can't be resumed. By making real IDE dma tranfer run in another thread, qemu will return and VMX resume on time and there are fewer cycle wasted.

The QEMU x86 emulator
---------------------
INSTALLATION
------------
Type
./configure
make
to build qemu, qemu-CPU and libqemu.a (CPU is the name of the various
supported target CPUs).
Type
make install
to install QEMU in /usr/local
Tested tool versions
--------------------
In order to compile QEMU succesfully, it is very important that you
have the right tools. The most important one is gcc. I cannot guaranty
that QEMU works if you do not use a tested gcc version. Look at
'configure' and 'Makefile' if you want to make a different gcc
version work.

[1] On Alpha, QEMU needs the gcc 'visibility' attribute only available
for gcc version >= 3.3.
[2] Linux >= 2.4.20 is necessary for precise exception support
(untested).
[3] 2.4.9-ac10-rmk2-np1-cerf2
[4] gcc 2.95.x generates invalid code when using too many register
variables. You must use gcc 3.x on PowerPC.
