Thanks for your interests in this project. :) This is just prototype,
no wonder it is buggy...

Are those patches applied cleanly? Did you have the required
changesets mentioned in the wiki? Did you boot up your PV domain
successfully? If not, what did the QEMU log and Xen log (xl dmesg)
say?

The patch to start upstream QEMU for PV guest went into the tree six
weeks ago. That is
changeset 23727:2383077a5ae6
libxl: enabling upstream qemu as pure pv backend.

At first glance, your configuration seems all right to me.
Did you compile the virtio_ring and load it manually? Please note that
we can't use original virtio_ring implementation.
If you loaded all the modules successfully, what did `dmesg` say?
I also attach my configuration file, I have more detail setup for
device_model_args_pv. I will update wiki page.
Hope this helps.
Wei.
