Are there any features missing, or do we just need to add a test to osstest? Yeah, adding testing would be good. From this list of limitations: - PCI passthrough require permissive mode - at most 26 emulated disks are supported (more are still available as PV disks) - only one nic is supported - graphics output (VNC/SDL/Spice) not supported PCI passthrough requiring permissive mode is fine for now. 26 emulated disks is probably fine forever. We should have support for multiple nics, and I have a idea for that. The lack of graphics output is probably the biggest limitation at this time. Regards, Jason

I think from my point of view that is all that would be sufficient but
others may have other concerns.

It should go to staging and 4.14. Sorry this fell through the cracks. I have committed it with the existing Acks. Regarding 4.14, this would need to go through a backport request. Cheers,
