Hi list,

Ive read, that in xen 4.11 the pci-config-space has moved to xen.

Now, if I read correct, xen is able to passthrough PCI-Devices
(vga-cards?) without the help of qemu.

If I compare PVH with PVHVM, then the only difference seems, that
booting and motherboard chips is emulated in PVHVM via qemu and
paravirtualized in PVH by the emulated OS. If I now create a *windows*
(!) machine (i.e. win10) with xen pvhvm and install all possible PV
drivers (7 at the moment?), is it possible to run this windows
installation in PVH-Mode with passthrough of the vga card (and mayby
some motherboard devices)? Im aware, that I need to boot windows
directly without bios bootprocess, but this seems possible.

If running this kind of windows client in pvh-mode is not possible,
where is the fault in my thoughts?

Tfh!

Oliver
