Re: [Xen-devel] About ARM branch questions



Thanks Stabellini. I saw the slides of New PVH Virtualisation mode for ARM Cortex A15 and x8,  but can't understand  why no PVOPs and no shadow pagetables bacuase of nasted paging in HW?

Yes, they are.
However we have few outstanding patches, already sent to the list by me
or Ian, but still unapplied.

I guess you are referring to the Linux PV frontend and backend drivers?
Like netfront/netback and blkfront/blkback? If that is the case, then
yes, we are using exactly the same frontend/backend driver pairs as in
Xen x86.
