Memory blocks "devices" have no drivers. ls -la /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/subsystem/drivers total 0 (add_memory()/add_memory_resource() creates the memory block devices when called from a driver) > Thanks > > Michal > -- Thanks, David / dhildenb _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
