I would like to provide a DomU serial port access according to the xen-wiki.
 
To have access to the serial port in DomU, we need to prevent Dom0 from taken 
hold of this piece of hardware 
add to /etc/hotplug/blacklist the following modules to exclude from being 
loaded 
8250 
8250_pnp 
serial_core 
 
domU config: 
irq = [ 4 ] 
ioports = [ "3f8-3ff" ] 
to load the modules in domU. 
 
I tried without unload the 8250 driver and starting the domU resuted in an IRQ 
4 error.
 
Kind regards
 
David
