While in the upstream kernel I''m unable to find any use of XENPF_settime (and the DOM0_SETTIME alias of it) at all, in the 2.6.18 tree (and the forward ports of it) the function gets used only when ntp_synced() returns true (and - that''s minor - when independent_wallclock is not set). It would however seem to me that this doesn''t cover the case where...

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Hi all, This series adds a new microcode driver for Xen. The Xen hypervisor can deal with all the low-level details of doing a microcode update (Intel vs AMD, doing all the physical CPUs present on the system, current and future, etc), so all the driver has to do is make a hypercall to upload the microcode into Xen. This only

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> The high resolution timer code gets notified of step changes to the system time with clock_was_set() or clock_was_set_delayed() calls. If other parts of the kernel require similar notification there is no clear place to hook into. Add a clock_was_set atomic notifier chain (clock_was_set_notifier_list) and call this in place of clock_was_set().

Hi Ingo, Here''s the chunk of patches to add Xen Dom0 support (it''s probably worth creating a new xen/dom0 topic branch for it). A dom0 Xen domain is basically the same as a normal domU domain, but it has extra privileges to directly access hardware. There are two issues to deal with: - translating to and from the domain''s pseudo-physical addresses and real machine
