As with my previous mail, I would encourage you to create a xenpv0 device and have the xen nexus be very minimal. This would let you leave the existing identify routines in place (which is cleaner / more extensible than a static table of devices that you explicitly add), but by having the PV-specific drivers attach as children of xenpv0, their identify routines would only be invoked when xenpv0 attached. You can even use an identify routine for CPUs (see cpu_identify in sys/x86/x86/legacy.c). -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-xen@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-xen To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-xen-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
