   6         default y
   7         help
   8           The balloon driver allows the Xen domain to request more memory from
   9           the system to expand the domain's memory allocation, or alternatively
  10           return unneeded memory to the system.

  12 config XEN_SCRUB_PAGES
  13         bool "Scrub pages before returning them to system"

  16         help
  17           Scrub pages before returning them to the system for reuse by
  18           other domains.  This makes sure that any confidential data
  19           is not accidentally visible to other domains.  Is it more
  20           secure, but slightly less efficient.
  21           If in doubt, say yes.

  25         default y
  26         help
  27           The evtchn driver allows a userspace process to triger event
  28           channels and to receive notification of an event channel
  29           firing.
  30           If in doubt, say yes.

  37           Support for backend device drivers that provide I/O services
  38           to other virtual machines.

  40 config XENFS
  41         tristate "Xen filesystem"
  42         default y
  43         help
  44           The xen filesystem provides a way for domains to share
  45           information with each other and with the hypervisor.
  46           For example, by reading and writing the "xenbus" file, guests
  47           may pass arbitrary information to the initial domain.
  48           If in doubt, say yes.

  50 config XEN_COMPAT_XENFS
  51        bool "Create compatibility mount point /proc/xen"
  52        depends on XENFS
  53        default y
  54        help
  55          The old xenstore userspace tools expect to find "xenbus"
  56          under /proc/xen, but "xenbus" is now found at the root of the
  57          xenfs filesystem.  Selecting this causes the kernel to create
  58          the compatibility mount point /proc/xen if it is running on
  59          a xen platform.
  60          If in doubt, say yes.

  68          Create entries under /sys/hypervisor describing the Xen
  69          hypervisor environment.  When running native or in another
  70          virtual environment, /sys/hypervisor will still be present,
  71          but will have no xen contents.

  89           Allows userspace processes to create pages with access granted
  90           to other domains. This can be used to implement frontend drivers
  91           or as part of an inter-domain shared memory channel.

  98           Driver for the Xen PCI Platform device: it is responsible for
  99           initializing xenbus and grant_table when running in a Xen HVM
 100           domain. As a consequence this driver is required to run any Xen PV
