Subject: [PATCH v2] libxl: Handle xen_platform_pci=0 case with qemu-xen.
Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2013 18:21:34 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1385576494-18878-2-git-send-email-anthony.perard@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1385576494-18878-1-git-send-email-anthony.perard@citrix.com>

This should result in QEMU *not* adding the xen-platform device.

Since QEMU 1.6, this can be achieved by using a different qemu machine.
The one used by libxl is "xenfv", but using QEMU >=1.6 with "-machine
pc,accel=xen" works as well with only one difference compared to
"xenfv", there is no xen-platform device.
