That machine requires Xen to be started and at least one service, xenstore. In dom0, when it's used to attach more disks to dom0: $QEMU -M xenpv -xen-domid 0 -xen-attach \ -name dom0 -nographic -daemonize \ -monitor /dev/null -serial /dev/null -parallel /dev/null \ -nodefaults -no-user-config Communication is then done via xenstore to attach disks, we would use `xl block-attach` for that. Another example, when we start a guest and want to attach qcow disk and VNC. Our tool stack (xl / libxl) would first create the domain then start QEMU: $QEMU -machine xenpv -xen-domid 6 -xen-attach \ -name pv-arch \ -chardev socket,id=libxl-cmd,path=/var/run/xen/qmp-libxl-6,server,nowait \ -mon chardev=libxl-cmd,mode=control \ -no-shutdown -nodefaults -no-user-config \ -vnc 0.0.0.0:0,to=99 \ -display none -m 1024 Is that enough information? Also, we do automated tests of QEMU. It is done by `osstest' and the results are sent to xen-de...@lists.xenproject.org. One example of a test result: https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-03/msg01577.html Thanks, -- Anthony PERARD
