[PATCH v2] allow xenfb initialization for hvm guests

From: Stefano Stabellini <hidden>
Date: 2014-01-03 19:03:03
Also in: lkml, xen-devel
Subsystem: framebuffer layer, the rest, xen hypervisor interface · Maintainers: Helge Deller, Linus Torvalds, Juergen Gross, Stefano Stabellini

There is no reasons why an HVM guest shouldn't be allowed to use xenfb.
As a matter of fact ARM guests, HVM from Linux POV, can use xenfb.
Given that no Xen toolstacks configure a xenfb backend for x86 HVM
guests, they are not affected.

Please note that at this time QEMU needs few outstanding fixes to
provide xenfb on ARM:
