[RFC] First (incomplete) cut of Xen paravirt binding
I've updated the patches at
http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/paravirt/?mf=33ba6c4fce13;path=/ to carve out
the basic shape of how I see all this fitting together.
These patches implement an initial set of Xen paravirt ops, as well as
adapting head.S to set up a Xen-specific entrypoint. The head.S code
does absolutely minimal setup, and then calls xen_start_kernel(). This
installs the Xen

[PATCH 0/8] lguest
As promised to Andrew, and with much thanks to Andi Kleen for feedback,
this is the new series of lguest patches.
Main change is the move to drivers/lguest (for future non-i386
expansion), but lots of cleanups driven by Andi's feedback and the
documentation effort (which made me examine every line of code).
It's not perfect, but it's definitely useful.
Cheers,
Rusty.

[PATCH 00/10] paravirt/subarchitecture boot protocol
This series updates the boot protocol to 2.07 and uses it to implement
paravirtual booting. This allows the bootloader to tell the kernel
what kind of hardware/pseudo-hardware environment it's coming up under,
and the kernel can use the appropriate boot sequence code.
Specifically:
- Update the boot protocol to 2.07, which adds fields to specify the
hardware subarchitecture and some

[PATCH 1/7] lguest: documentation pt I: Preparation
The netfilter code had very good documentation: the Netfilter Hacking
HOWTO. Noone ever read it.
So this time I'm trying something different, using a bit of
Knuthiness. Start with drivers/lguest/README.

[PATCH 00/10] REVIEW: Xen patches for 2.6.24
This is my current set of updates to Xen for 2.6.24. This is largely
a bugfix set, and a couple of them are also relevent to 2.6.23.
These are in the pre-x86 merge form; I'll update them once the merge
goes into git.
Quick overview:
- remove some dead code in arch/i386/mm/init.c
- clean up some duplicate includes
- when sending an IPI, yield the vcpu if the destination doesn't have

[RFC PATCH 00/35] Xen i386 paravirtualization support
Unlike full virtualization in which the virtual machine provides
the same platform interface as running natively on the hardware,
paravirtualization requires modification to the guest operating system
to work with the platform interface provided by the hypervisor.
Xen was designed with performance in mind. Calls to the hypervisor
are minimized, batched if necessary, and non-critical codepaths
