This is a patch to forward-port a Xend behaviour. Xend writes IO ABI used for all frontends. Blkfront before 2.6.26 relies on this behaviour otherwise guest cannot boot when running in 32-on-64 mode. Blkfront after 2.6.26 writes that node itself, in which case it''s just an overwrite to an existing node which should be OK. In fact Xend writes the ABI for all frontends including console

vif interfaces allows the user to specify the domain that should run the backend (also known as driver domain) using the ''backend'' parameter. This is not compatible with run_hotplug_scripts=1, since libxl can only run the hotplug scripts from the Domain 0.

I''m using the CentOS 6 bundle of xen from http://dev.centos.org/centos/6/xen-c6/ and ran into an issue when creating domains with multiple VHD tap disks. Comparing unstable to the 4.2.1 code I''m using, it seems this issue still applies. I''m using a configuration line that looks something like disk = [

The xen_platform_pci xl configuration parameter currently has no effect on upstream QEMU; creation of the platform device is hardcoded. I have created a patch to QEMU to remove this hardcoded creation. This patch specifies the appropriate -device argument on the QEMU command line (and hence creates the device) only when xen_platform_pci is true. Signed-off-by: Paul Durrant

Hi, Here is a little patch that attempt to fix the issue regarding xen_platform_pci=0 not been handled. There is one patch left from the previous version. The patch that was adding qemu_machine_override have been removed as it is unnecessary. If someone wants to change the -machine, it can always add it to device_model_args_hvm, as QEMU appear to use the last one. Regards, Anthony PERARD (1):

I think I posted this patch before, but it looks like it was in December 2012 (!). 1/1 libxl: introduce an option for disabling the non-O_DIRECT workaround Ideally it would go into 4.4, at least. Provided the corresponding qemu part has gone into qemu-xen, which I think it has. Can anyone confirm ?
