[Xen-users] pvops pv on hvm kernel config?



Hi,

I'm trying to configure vanilla kernel 3.5 to include pv on hvm
drivers and I'm struggling to find the right combination of options,
if I enable CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST then options such as
CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND become available, but I believe they are
the pv guest drivers are they not?

What do I need to enable to use PV on HVM? I don't want to run a
paravirtualised guest because I will be attempting PCI passthrough of
nvidia graphics cards and usb controllers, which will only work with a
HVM domU.

According to this page
http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Linux_PV_on_HVM_drivers I should see
options for xen-blkfront for disk, and xen-netfront for network, but
searching for those drivers in the kernel config finds no matches as
all.

I'm rather new to this pvops stuff, until yesterday I used a Xenified
openSUSE patchset....

Thanks
Andy
