Re: [win-pv-devel] v9.0.0 released

[Steffan Cline <steffan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone have a specific config file they'd like to share that performs well 
with these newest drivers?

On my Win 2016 Server, I removed the 8.2 drivers, rebooted, installed these and 
rebooted. It's been loading for about 30 minutes with the spinning dots 
non-stop.

 
Thank you,
Steffan Cline

    All,
    
      Now that all master branches have had their version bumped to 9.1.0, and 
the latest builds of 9.0.0 have passed sanity tests, I can announce that I have 
signed those builds and they are officially released. (Available directly at 
https://xenbits.xen.org/pvdrivers/win/9.0.0).
    
      With this new major version of the drivers comes a new console driver 
(XENCONS). With this installed, it is now possible to run 'xl console' from 
dom0 and access a shell inside a Windows guest. There are also a new pair of 
drivers (XENVKBD and XENHID) which provide support for PV keyboard and pointing 
device (nominally mouse, but actually with absolute co-ordinates) which means 
that USB emulation may be turned off after installation without any degradation 
of the guest (VNC) console user experience. This is advantageous as USB 
emulation places a significant load on the host, compromising the maximum 
number of Windows guests that may be run.
    
      Cheers,
    
        Paul
