Hi,

     For these days,

we try to enable xen detailed log and create the HVM (winxp) with VGA 
driver again,

and the xm dmesg shows some strange warnings as follow (when we enable 
vga passthrough).

It seems there are some BIOS functions do not support yet,

the int15 series looks like intel specific functions.

Do these warnings affect the VGA pass through?

Are these int functions invoked from VGA BIOS?

Thanks.
