Does anyone have a code snippet that I could use (in kernel space) to
determine if I am running under Xen or not in a HVM domain?

Thanks

I don't have a code snippet....but a script I saw around here basically did "cat /proc/acpi/dsdt | grep xen" to determine whether they were on an HVM domain or not. You can probably pretty easily call the same functions that generate the dsdt from the kernel to determine the information.
