Just discussed this with @nathanael-h; I would strongly recommend using the load balancer plugin in XO and create some VM-to-host affinity rules, so that your CP VMs are running on different hosts ! So when the RPU comes you would have minimum impact.

@willamcorlin Hello,

The fix for CVE-2026-46243 has gone through the entire standard release process, which includes:

Review by at least 2 developers.
Unit testing within the package (if available).
End-to-end testing in the CI (xcp-ng-tests).
Several days of user testing.

And since the release, we have received no feedback suggesting any potential regression.
(This does not mean that the risk of a regression is zero.)

If any issue arises, please do not hesitate to get back to us.

Respectfully,

julienXOvates

@coolsport00 I think I had this from time to time since a few. I could resolve it by closing my browser completely (not only the XO tab). Can you give a try ? We'll investigate this issue anyway. Thanks

julienXOvates

@coolsport00 can you try if issue is fixed in branch xo6/fix-opening-console-in-new-tab ?

julienXOvates

@coolsport00 sorry for late reply, we can reproduce this issue, so we're going to investigate and get back to you. Thanks for raising this !

@JamesG Thanks. I'll let @teddyastie see. I think he would be more confortable with having the card in our lab, which should be imminent now, but I won't speak for him.

But I would in any case where PCI passthrough for edge cases like the GPU marked kind of is, is not a requirement, Always recommend XCP-ng over the others.

Thanks for that :).

There's no problem to state faithfully what works and what doesn't with a solution, and adapt the advice to the actual needs.

I just felt compelled to react because I didn't find it entirely right to state that GPU passthrough has low priority. It's supported in general, but there are devices that come with technical challenges not fully addressed yet in Xen or in XCP-ng, and we treat that as part of the general hardware support we aim for.

Same as we work on device drivers for devices mostly found in home labs, without dismissing them as low priority.

And it's a good point to state that the needs around GPUs are growing fast due to AI, indeed.

99 percent of the dev team is working security and basic hypervisor

The numbers don't match any reality though. Yes, maintenance is important, but we have a developer working on AMD iGPU passthrough fixes, and Teddy here is following the Intel Arc topic closely and obtained hardware (waiting for it to be available in the lab). We also work on AMD MxGPU for vGPU support on the supported devices. We also have work on virtio-gpu. Without producing something that can become an actual feature yet, as it's complex, but there's clearly investment on those fronts.
