Porting bhyve to arm has been one of the longest running UPB projects. 
You can find more info on the history here ...

Your best bet is probably to take a look a the following review opened 
by Andrew Turner late last year. His work is based on the original port 
by the UPB team ...

I can't speak to the current state of this work. From what I recall, 
there were several attempts made by UPB to collaborate, but they failed 
to get a response. Perhaps he/they can chime in here with more detail.
