Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] PV driver on hvm guest save&restore status report w/cset 14797
Hi Steven,
Thanks for your reminding, definitely I have inserted xen-platform-pci.ko, 
xenbus.ko, xen-balloon.ko and reboot.ko. If I only insert xen-platform-pci.ko, 
pv drivers(vbd, vnif, balloon) could not work, so I am sure that pv drivers 
themselves work before save/restore.

Best regards,
Fan

Which PV drivers do you have installed?

In particular, if you have xen-platform-pci.ko installed, you _must_ also
have xenbus.ko and reboot.ko since the tools assume that if the callback
has been activated, the guest will suspend itself.

Looks to me from logs like you may have xen-platform-pci.ko, but not
the other two...


cheers,

S.
