Hi, we use Ubuntu as Dom0 and like this solution. But we need some information if there would be solutions in the near future.
Ubuntu 16.04 use xen-hypervisor 4.6. So PVH, PVH shim or HVM shim can not be used. For 4.6 exists a mitigation "Xen PTI" (see http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/xsa254/README.pti). Will xen-hypervisor 4.6 be updated? Will xen-hypervisor 4.9 (Ubuntu Bionic) get the patches for PVH, PVH shim or HVM shim? PVH seems the best solution. Will this supported by Ubuntu Bionic?
