I have an HVM Solaris 10 guest running on Xen 4.0.1. I'd like to use a
pv NIC instead of an emulated NIC, and I know Solaris 10 has pv-on-hvm
drivers installed by default, so I switched my vif specification to:

vif = ['mac=00:16:3e:60:20:11,bridge=eth1,type=netfront']

On Xen 3.3.1, the Solaris 10 kernel detects the device (xnf0), loads
the pv-on-hvm drivers, and everything works as expected. On Xen 4.0.1,
using the same exact guest config and disk image, the kernel doesn't
see the device. There's nothing in the QEMU or xend logs that
indicates a problem. Has anyone experienced a similar problem?
pv_on_hvm works fine with RHEL6 guests on Xen 4.0.1.

Thanks!

Jason
