Xen PVH machine (``xenpvh``)
|
||||||
|
=========================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Xen supports a spectrum of types of guests that vary in how they depend
|
||||||
|
on HW virtualization features, emulation models and paravirtualization.
|
||||||
|
PVH is a mode that uses HW virtualization features (like HVM) but tries
|
||||||
|
to avoid emulation models and instead use passthrough or
|
||||||
|
paravirtualized devices.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
QEMU can be used to provide PV virtio devices on an emulated PCIe controller.
|
||||||
|
That is the purpose of this minimal machine.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Supported devices
|
||||||
|
-----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The x86 Xen PVH QEMU machine provide the following devices:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- RAM
|
||||||
|
- GPEX host bridge
|
||||||
|
- virtio-pci devices
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The idea is to only connect virtio-pci devices but in theory any compatible
|
||||||
|
PCI device model will work depending on Xen and guest support.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Running
|
||||||
|
-------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Xen tools will typically construct a command-line and launch QEMU
|
||||||
|
for you when needed. But here's an example of what it can look like in
|
||||||
|
case you need to construct one manually:

||||||
|
