[et-mgmt-tools] Why does not virt-install use the tap driver in HVM?

Hi,

I have a question.

There is the following codes in virt-install.

def get_disk(disk, size, sparse, guest, hvm, conn):
     :
     :
            if d.type == virtinst.VirtualDisk.TYPE_FILE and not(hvm) and virtinst.util.is_blktap_capable():
                d.driver_name = virtinst.VirtualDisk.DRIVER_TAP

Why "not(hvm)"?


Thanks,
Nobuhiro Itou.
