PV drivers in HVM DomU



Still a Xen newb but by my understanding, when I run a guest under Xen HVM, I can increase performance dramatically by using PV "drivers" to access network and disk (thus avoiding QEMU emulated devices). This is usually recommended in Windows, for example.

So, is it possible or advisable to try and compile xenbus, xennet, and xbd into a GENERIC kernel?

I am running GENERIC under HVM right now so I can use all four cores.

thanks,
