Is this on purpose? Shouldn't the frontend drivers, xen/platform-pci.c etc. be configurable without having to enable CONFIG_PARAVIRT?I suppose that would be possible but I don't think it's a useful configuration because you would lose PV spinlocks for example. Having no pv spinlocks on a single vcpu HVM guest isn't so bad. Having no pv-drivers for disks and networking is worse.
