Now that we decide to implement vUART only for ARM, I think the comment
I made on v1 still stands. I.e that you give the impression this is
supported for all architectures. But this is not true.


To complete, I would follow what we did for gic_version:

LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_ARM_VUART

[Xen-devel] [PATCH 04/25 v7] xen/arm: vpl011: Add support for vuart in libxl

[Bhupinder Thakur]

An option is provided in libxl to enable/disable SBSA vuart while
creating a guest domain.

Libxl now supports a generic vuart console and SBSA uart is a specific type.
In future support can be added for multiple vuart of different types.

User can enable SBSA vuart by adding the following line in the guest
configuration file:

vuart = "sbsa_uart"

Changes since v4:
- Renamed "pl011" to "sbsa_uart".

Changes since v3:
- Added a new config option CONFIG_VUART_CONSOLE to enable/disable vuart console
  support.
- Moved libxl_vuart_type to arch-arm part of libxl_domain_build_info
- Updated xl command help to mention new console type - vuart.

Changes since v2:
- Defined vuart option as an enum instead of a string.
- Removed the domain creation flag defined for vuart and the related code
  to pass on the information while domain creation. Now vpl011 is initialized
  independent of domain creation through new DOMCTL APIs.
