Without some indication from a guest it is not possible for a toolstack to know whether instantiation of a new vbd or vif should result in a new PV device of the appropriate type being brought online. (In other words whether guest PV drivers are present and functioning). This patch documents two paths which vif and vbd frontend drivers can use to advertise their ability to respond to new vif or vbd instantiations.

xen-bugtool =========== The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output, details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs. The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving. The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly exclude those logs from the archive. xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
