Subject: [PATCH] xen/xenbus: Add quirk to deal with misconfigured backends.
Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2012 14:19:04 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334773144-2394-1-git-send-email-konrad.wilk@oracle.com> (raw)
From: konrad <konrad@localhost.localdomain>
A rather annoying and common case is when booting a PVonHVM guest
and exposing the PV KBD and PV VFB - as both of those do not
make any sense. The HVM guest is using the VGA driver and the emulated
keyboard for this. So we provide a very basic quirk framework
(can be expanded in the future) to not wait for 6 minutes for those devices
to initialize - they never wont.
To trigger this, put this in your guest config:
vfb = [ 'vnc=1, vnclisten=0.0.0.0 ,vncunused=1']
instead of this:
vnc=1
vnclisten="0.0.0.0"
[v3: Split delay in non-essential (30 seconds) and essential
devices per Ian and Stefano suggestion]
