From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@xxxxxxxx> It is now not fully possible to control if and which virtual devices are created by the frontend, e.g. keyboard and pointer devices are always created and multi-touch device is created if the backend advertises multi-touch support. In some cases this behavior is not desirable and better control over the frontend's configuration is required. Add new XenStore feature fields, so it is possible to individually control set of exposed virtual devices for each guest OS: - set feature-disable-keyboard to 1 if no keyboard device needs to be created - set feature-disable-pointer to 1 if no pointer device needs to be created Keep old behavior by default.
