The patchset above was about the user-space backend, IIRC. > I am trying to develop generic PV audio drivers for XEN. I see people have developed PV Storage and Network drivers in XEN and they are up-streamed. So I was thinking to do that for audio as well. Do you recall why the above patchset was not merged ? any limitations or was it incomplete ?
