Can someone provide instructions and the necessary environment/toolchain support needed to get Xen to build and boot on a native EFI system (i.e. with no CSM/legacy support)? Joe

...sily fixed by adding the missing ''case XS_WATCH:'' to xenbus_dev_write() in xenbus_dev.c. The latter is more difficult to fix. So before I tackle it, I wanted to see if anyone else was already working on a solution or just had some thoughts to share on possible solutions.

I noticed that the changesets around 7378:bd3268de4145 introduced the xen_domain_handle_t param to xc_create_domain(), the struct domain, etc. and call it a "tool UUID". Can someone explain how this is envisioned being used (xend sets it to some magic values but I don''t see it get used anywhere)?

This adds a boolean boot parameter to xen to allow reserved memory regions to be added to the iommu mappings for dom0. The parameter is "iommu_include_reserved" and is off by default. A warning is also traced when incorrect RMRR to system memory map values are detected. This is being added to address some incorrect BIOS''s that do not report correctly the requied reserved memory

All, We met several system failures on different hardware platforms, which are all caused by VT-d fault. err 1: disk is corrupted by VT-d fault on SATA. err 2: Dom0 kernel panics at booting, which is caused VT-d fault on UHCI. err 3, Dom0 complains disk errors while creating HVM guests. The culprit would be changeset 19054 "x86_64: Remove statically-partitioned Xen heap.". Detailed

Hello, This patch allows userspace tools on a domU to setup a watch on the xenstore. It does this by intercepting XS_WATCH requests written to /proc/xen/xenbus and then re-submitting the request to the in-kernel xenstore interface, in linux-2.6-xen-sparse/drivers/xen/xenbus/xenbus_xs.c. When a callback occurs, an in-kernel function is invoked, which then reconstructs a response in the format
