Hello,

I have a DPDK application that needs to support the xen hypervisor.  My cus=
tomer does not want to enable virtio and I believe it is not supported in m=
ainline xen.  Has there been any discussion about the feasibility of creati=
ng a poll mode driver that would support the native xen PV network drivers =
for PV-on-HVM guests? =20

Thanks

Bill=
