Dear all:
I am trying to deploy openstack on xen hypervisor.Since XenSever or XCP is
not available on our customized virtulization platform. We decide to use
libvirt on xen as a middleware operating the xen hypervisor. But when I try
to boot a instance , xen failed to response and I find the error in my
nova.log as follows:

It seems that libvirt doesn't support virNWFilterDefineXML on xen,
Unfortunately, your analysis is correct - no one has yet contributed a
patch to port NWFilter usage to the xen driver.
Is there
any good solutions? Or how much work should be done to add this function
to libvirt?
You could use the code in the qemu driver as a starting point, if you
are interested in adding the functionality yourself. I don't use xen
much myself, so I probably won't write such a patch, but I will review
any patch posted by others.
