Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] libxl: fix CDROM issues
Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2016 18:13:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1460132019-23719-1-git-send-email-roger.pau@citrix.com> (raw)

Due to recent changes (and intended fixes) CDROM has become quite unstable
recently. This series aims to fix the issues reported with having empty
CDROM devices in the HVM guest configuration files. It also contains some
cleanups of more generic code in order to ease the implementation.

After some talk on IRC, the easiest solution at this point in the release is
to force PV CDROM backends of HVM guests with a device model to use Qdisk,
since the cd-{insert/eject} implementation is only able to deal with this
kind of PV backend.

Roger.
