[Xen-API] RE: VM. get allowed VBD devices
Hi,
> What exactly is VM. get allowed VBD devices()? What list does it return?
The return value is a list of possible "VBD.userdevice" values: integers from 0
up to some supported maximum (where the maximum depends on guest type), with
entries corresponding to existing VBDs removed.
The purpose is to give clients a hint about what "VBD.userdevice" values are
possible for a given VM configuration.
The supported maximums are hardcoded in ocaml/xapi/xapi_vm_helpers.ml:
let allowed_VBD_devices_HVM = range_inclusive 0 3
let allowed_VBD_devices_HVM_PP = range_inclusive 0 15
let allowed_VBD_devices_PV = range_inclusive 0 15
let allowed_VIF_devices_HVM = range_inclusive 0 3
let allowed_VIF_devices_HVM_PP = range_inclusive 0 6
let allowed_VIF_devices_PV = range_inclusive 0 6
where "PV" means fully paravirt linux guests; "HVM" means HVM guests with no PV
drivers; "HVM_PP" means HVM guests with PV drivers.
Note that none of these limits are actually enforced; this is just a hinting
mechanism.
Cheers,
Dave
