Hi,

In a PV guest, shadow paging is used for logging dirty pages during live
migration. For a HVM guest, it's enabled all the time due to full virtualization.

Does the current version of Xen support running a PV guest with shadow
paging enabled all the time ? If so, will it work if I just put "shadow_memory = 8"
in the cfg file ?
Thanks.

Regards,

Levin
