Citrix Hypervisor 8.1 drops PV guest support

[Stephen Borrill <netbsd%precedence.co.uk@localhost>]

https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-hypervisor/whats-new.html

"Support for paravirtualized (PV) VMs has been removed in this release of 
Citrix Hypervisor. XenCenter warns you during update or upgrade that PV 
guests are no longer supported.

You can import existing VMs that use these operating systems into your 
Citrix Hypervisor 8.1 installation. However, Citrix does not provide 
support for VMs with these operating systems. Upgrade your VMs to a more 
recent and supported version of the OS as soon as possible. For more 
information, see Upgrade from PV to HVM guests."

Allegedly any PV VMs should continue to run, but they are living on 
borrowed time.

How's PVHVM support going?
