[PATCH 0/12] PV on HVM Xen
in [Kernel]
|
Prev: latencytop: adapt the Makefile for cross-compilation
Next: [PATCH 10/12] Do not try to disable hpet if it hasn't been initialized before
From: Stefano Stabellini on 3 Jun 2010 09:10 Hi all, the last update on the PV on HVM Xen series contains the following changes: - some variables and functions have been renamed following Jeremy's suggestions, in particular: s/init_shared_info/xen_hvm_init_shared_info s/xen_platform_pci/xen_platform_pci_enabled s/UNPLUG_/XEN_UNPLUG_ - the two platform_pci.h header files have been merged and the useless intro has been removed; - the xen platform pci product number and driver versions have been made static; - the description on the VIRQ_TIMER patch has been improved; - a new patch to fix hpet behaviour has been introduced: hpet_disable is called unconditionally on machine shutdown, and doesn't check whether hpet has been actually enabled, causing trouble if it hasn't; - the vector callback patch has been improved: we don't use the ipi vector anymore but we allocate our own so that we can avoid useless and expensive vlapic acks. Meanwhile the vector callback patch for xen has been checked into xen-unstable, so you don't need a separate patch for xen anymore to take full advantage of this patch series. A git tree is available here: git://xenbits.xen.org/people/sstabellini/linux-pvhvm.git branch name 2.6.34-pvhvm-v3.
