[PATCH 23/25] [PATCH] paravirt hooks for arch initialization

From: Glauber de Oliveira Costa
Date: Wed Aug 08 2007 - 03:19:45 EST


This patch add paravirtualization hooks in the arch initialization
process. paravirt_arch_setup() lets the guest issue any specific
initialization routine, and skip all the rest if it see fits, which
it signals by a proper return value.

In case the initialization continues, we hook at least memory_setup(),
so it can handle it in its own way.

The hypervisor can make its own ebda mapping visible by providing
its custom ebda_info function.
