Hardknott is long term while honister is not but both are stable releases. I am not quite sure I get your 4.14 pulling 4.16. The 4.14 recipe is building the latest 4.14 version of Xen. >From what I see modules to load are in a xen.conf in modules-load.d generated >by Xen tools compilation. Gntdev is properly listed in the current xen source tree as one of the default modules to actually load on boot. Can you check the content of modules-load.d/xen.conf (somewhere in /etc in your dom0 roots) ? It could be that this was actually missing in the xen release you are building or that systemd is not actually loading modules listed there. Cheers Bertrand
