Hi,

The resume of Dom0 should always follow Xen's resume. This is

Please explain why you always need to resume Dom0 afterwards.
We don't need to, but that is what is promised in the design spec.
You surely had some rationale when writing the promise in the design document,
right?
So what is the reason behind it? I don't want to resume a domain if that's not
necessary.
To be more specific - a domU that doesn't depend on dom0 can resume
and work happily without dom0 being resumed, i.e. just Xen and domU
resume. So patch "[PATCH 17/18] xen/arm: Resume Dom0 after Xen
resumes" is not a must (when there are no PV drivers involved).
PV backends don't necessarily reside in the hardware domain. So how is this
going to work for the other case?
Cheers,
