Hi Daniel & Markus,

However, I think that it should do this with xenkbd who is originally the

It will be problem if the HVM domain is working on PVFB in the future.


I honestly can't see HVM using the PVFB at any time in the forseeable future
unless PVFB is further developed to not suck. ie being able to change the
resolution / bpp would be a start for PVFB - something HVM can already do
trivially.


Does it mean not to support making the HVM domain work on PVFB?

I thought that it was going to work the HVM domain on PVFB before.
Is my recognition wrong?

I don't see any point in doing this change since it makes no difference to
the functionality of paravirt guests & there's no compelling need for PVFB
in the HVM guests.

If you do not work the HVM domain on PVFB, this change is not significant atall.


Thanks,
