### Note on dom0 and EOL ###
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dom0 is isolated from domUs. DomUs can access only a few interfaces,
|
2016-09-09 16:14:02 -04:00
|
|
|
such as Xen, device backends (in the dom0 kernel and in other VMs, such as the
|
|
|
|
|
NetVM), and Qubes tools (gui-daemon, qrexec-daemon, etc.). These components are
|
|
|
|
|
[security-critical], and we provide updates for all of them (when necessary),
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of the support status of the base distribution. For this reason, we
|
|
|
|
|
consider it safe to continue using a given base distribution in dom0 even after
|
2018-01-06 18:49:43 -05:00
|
|
|
it has reached EOL (end-of-life).
