The user has the option of disabling the platform driver: 00:02.0 Unassigned class [ff80]: XenSource, Inc. Xen Platform Device (rev 01) which is used to unplug the emulated drivers (IDE, Realtek 8169, etc) and allow the PV drivers to take over. If the user wishes to disable that they can set: xen_platform_pci=0 (in the guest config file) or xen_emul_unplug=never (on the Linux command

This is an update to the Linux part of the Xen PVFB. Linux Xen PVFB is a pair of Xen para-virtual frontend device drivers: drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c provides a framebuffer, and drivers/input/xen-kbdfront provides keyboard and mouse. Their backends run in dom0 user space. Parts in this patch series: 1. Enable Xen console by default in domU 2. Pointer z-axis (mouse wheel) support 3. Module

The xenbus bus type uses device_create_file to assign all used device attributes. However it does not remove them when the device goes away. This patch uses the dev_attrs field of the bus type to specify default attributes for all devices.

From: Ben Cressey <bcressey@amazon.com> The commit "minios: refactor xenbus state machine" caused "/state" to be appended to the local value of nodename. Previously the nodename variable pointed to dev->nodename. The xenbus_rm() calls were not updated to reflect this change, and refer to paths that do not exist. For example, shutdown_blkfront() for vbd 2049 would

Use PM_FREEZE, PM_THAW and PM_RESTORE power events for suspend/resume/checkpoint functionality, instead of PM_SUSPEND and PM_RESUME. Use of these pm events fixes the Xen Guest hangup when taking checkpoints. When a suspend event is cancelled (while taking checkpoints once/continuously), we use PM_THAW instead of PM_RESUME. PM_RESTORE is used when suspend is not cancelled. See

I tried setting xen_platform_pci=0 on my test ubuntu 11.10 livecd VM hoping it would run in HVM only mode, but the guest''s logs showed it detecting the Xen host and loaded the PV netfront driver (after modprobe). Is this expected behavior? Is there no way to force HVM only and not PVHVM or total PV? Setup: Xen Unstable Qemu Upstream Thanks, David
