+\chapter{Hypervisor-Level ISA}
+\label{hypervisor}
+
+This chapter is a placeholder for a future RISC-V hypervisor-level
+common core specification.
+
+\begin{commentary}
+The privileged architecture is designed to simplify the use of classic
+virtualization techniques, where a guest OS is run at user-level, as
+the few privileged instructions can be easily detected and trapped.
