Xen i386 xen-head.S fix sections mixup xen-head.S does not come back to the data section, leaving the text section as current section. It causes problems with a slightly enhanced DEBUG_RODATA that supports CONFIG_HOTPLUG and bringing a CPU up after the text has been marked read-only: reference to early_gdt_descr causes a page fault. It applies on 2.6.22-rc2-mm2. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers

I am working on some other bugs and perf issues - and while working I noticed that both sparse and Coverity have reported some issues with Xen drivers. Please see attached various bug-fixes that I am proposing for 3.6.

...-traditional means the ELFNOTE definition after the #else needs to have the same number of arguments (I think so anyway, the -traditional CPP semantics are pretty fscking strange!). With this patch I am able to define elfnotes in assembly like this with both old and new assemblers. ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_OS, .asciz, "linux") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_GUEST_VERSION, .asciz, "2.6") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_XEN_VERSION, .asciz, "xen-3.0") ELFNOTE(Xen, XEN_ELFNOTE_VIRT_BASE, .long, __PAGE_OFFSET) Which seems reasonable enough.

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

Hi. This patchset implements ia64/xen domU support based on ia64/pv_ops frame work which was sent as another patchest. 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. This patchset does the followings. - Some preparation work. Mainly importing header files to

Hi. This patchset implements ia64/xen domU support based on ia64/pv_ops frame work which was already merged to linux ia64 test branch. This patch is for linux ia64 test branch. This patchset does the followings. - Some preparation work. Mainly importing header files to define related structures. - Then, define functions related to hypercall which is the way to communicate with Xen hypervisor.

Hi. This patchset is ia64/xen domU patch take 8 which was updated following Tony's review. (Thank you very much, Tony.) This patchset implements ia64/xen domU support based on ia64/pv_ops frame work which was sent as another patchest. This patchset is for linux ia64 test branch and depends on some patches for xen common part I'll send separately. To compile, the changesets in x86/xen
