[patch 00/20] XEN-paravirt: Xen guest implementation for paravirt_ops interface

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Sat Jan 13 2007 - 18:11:32 EST


This patch series implements the Linux Xen guest in terms of the
paravirt-ops interface. The features in implemented this patch series
are:
* domU only
* UP only (most code is SMP-safe, but there's no way to create a new vcpu)
* writable pagetables, with late pinning/early unpinning
(no shadow pagetable support)
* supports both PAE and non-PAE modes
* xen console
* virtual block device (blockfront)

(Netfront needs a bit of updating, and will be in a separate patch later.)

The patch series is in two parts:

1-11: cleanups to the core kernel, either to fix outright problems,
or to add appropriate hooks for Xen
12-20: the Xen guest implementation itself

I've tried to make each patch as self-explanatory as possible. The
series is based on 2.6.20-rc4-mm1.

Thanks,
J
