There is no reasons why an HVM guest shouldn't be allowed to use xenfb. As a matter of fact ARM guests, HVM from Linux POV, can use xenfb. Given that no Xen toolstacks configure a xenfb backend for x86 HVM guests, they are not affected.
Please note that at this time QEMU needs few outstanding fixes to provide xenfb on ARM: http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=138739419700837&w=2 Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabell...@eu.citrix.com> Acked-by: David Vrabel <david.vra...@citrix.com> CC: boris.ostrov...@oracle.com CC: plagn...@jcrosoft.com CC: tomi.valkei...@ti.com CC: linux-fb...@vger.kernel.org CC: konrad.w...@oracle.com --- drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c b/drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c index cd005c2..02e1c01 100644 --- a/drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c +++ b/drivers/video/xen-fbfront.c @@ -692,7 +692,7 @@ static DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER(xenfb, , static int __init xenfb_init(void) { - if (!xen_pv_domain()) + if (!xen_domain()) return -ENODEV; /* Nothing to do if running in dom0. */ -- 1.7.10.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
