Hi. The patch I send before was too large so that it was dropped from the maling list. I'm sending again with smaller size. This patch set is the xen paravirtualization of hand written assenbly code. And I expect that much clean up is necessary before merge. We really need the feed back before starting actual clean up as Eddie already said before. Eddie discussed how to clean up and suggested

Hi. This patchset implements ia64/pv_ops support which is the framework for virtualization support. Now all the comments so far have been addressed, but only a few exceptions. On x86 various ways to support virtualization were proposed, and eventually pv_ops won. So on ia64 the pv_ops strategy is appropriate too. Later I'll post the patchset which implements xen domU based on ia64/pv_ops.

Hi. I rewrote the patch according to the comments. I adopted generating in-place code because it looks the quickest way. The point Eddie wanted to discuss is how to generate code and its ABI. i.e. in-place generating v.s. direct jump v.s. indirect function call Indirect function call doesn't make sense because ivt.S is compiled multi times. And it is up to pv instances to choose in-place

Hi. This patchset implements ia64/pv_ops support which is the framework for virtualization support. Changes from take 5 are rebased to Linux 2.6.26-rc3, bug fix ivt.S paravirtualization and multi entry point support. I believe these patches can be applied to the linux ia64 repository. On x86 various ways to support virtualization were proposed, and eventually pv_ops won. So on ia64 the pv_ops

Hi. This patchset implements xen/ia64 domU support. Qing He and Eddie Dong also has been woring on pv_ops so that I want to discuss before going further and avoid duplicated work. I suppose that Eddie will also post his own patch. So reviewing both patches, we can reach to better pv_ops interface. - I didn't changed the ia64 intrinsic paravirtulization abi from the last post. Presumably it

...pal static convension is very stable, having implementation or each paravirtualization technology might be acceptable because it won't cause maintenance const much. entry.S: The kernel leaving point. This is the counter part of ivt.S. More concretely ia64_switch_to(), ia64_leave_syscall() and ia64_leave_kernel(). They require certainly paravirtualization because they include sensitive instructions and performance critical. Those functions can't be switched very easily compared to the ivt case so that some kind of facitilty which switch those or binary patching them are necessary. > 1: Dual IVT...

Hi. Thank you for comments on asm code paravirtualization. Its direction is getting clear. Although it hasn't been finished yet, I'd like to start discussion on ia64 intrinsics paravirtualization. This patch set is just for discussion so that it is a subset of xen Linux/ia64 domU paravirtualization, not self complete. You can get the full patched tree by typing git clone
