Very x86 centric name, very x86 centric functionality as well with a
very x86 centric implementation. I don't know what makes you think
there's anything remotely re-usable but I looked at it a while back and
there isn't that I can find.
The "configuration" of the source controller consists of creating it
with a number of sources and a BUID, that's about it. Then there's also
APIs to extract/set its state for migration.
Cheers,
Ben.
