Is it something we could consider making configurable at this point? Its certainly something we'd want to turn off in the PV shim build. While thinking about it, it is specific to HVM guests, so ought to depend on CONFIG_HVM anyway, which might be the easiest way to exclude it for the PV shim build if we don't want to make it actively configurable yet. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
