[PATCH v3 0/7] Remove 32-bit Xen PV guest support
The long term plan has been to replace Xen PV guests by PVH. The first victim of that plan are now 32-bit PV guests, as those are used only rather seldom these days. Xen on x86 requires 64-bit support and with Grub2 now supporting PVH officially since version 2.04 there is no need to keep 32-bit PV guest support alive in the Linux kernel. Additionally Meltdown mitigation is not available in the

[PATCH 0/4] make virt_spin_lock() a pvops function
With virt_spin_lock() being a pvops function the bare metal case can be optimized by patching the call away completely. In case a kernel running as a guest it can decide whether to use paravitualized spinlocks, the current fallback to the unfair test-and-set scheme, or to mimic the bare metal behavior.

[PATCH 00/10] paravirt: make amount of paravirtualization configurable
Today paravirtualization is a all-or-nothing game: either a kernel is compiled with no paravirtualization support at all, or it is supporting paravirtualized environments like Xen pv-guests or lguest additionally to some paravirtualized tuning for KVM, Hyperv, VMWare or Xen HVM-guests. As support of pv-guests requires quite intrusive pv-hooks (e.g. all access functions to page table entries,
