similar to: [PATCH] linux/x86: retrieve VESA capabilities in dom0

This set of patches adds the support for acceleration plugins to the netfront/netback drivers. These plugins are intended to support virtualisable network hardware that can be directly accessed from the guest, bypassing dom0. This is in response to the RFC we posted to xen-devel with an outline of our approach at the end of September. To follow will be another set of patches to provide our

XEN_DOM0 is a silent option that has been automatically selected when CONFIG_XEN is selected since 6b0661a5e6fbf. If this option was changed to a menu configurable option then it would only give users the ability to compile out about 100 kbytes of code. As that option makes little sense to choose, and the option isn''t menu selectable anyway, then we can clean up some code by simply

Hello. I had some trouble building nouveau drm for linux-2.6.35-rc1. I investigated a bit why it failed and noticed that the fb_info-structure had changed slightly. Since I do not have any previous knowledge of how the driver works, I'm not certain if this is a proper fix, but it seems to work. I'm curious if there's a better solution, or if my solution breaks in all other cases.

Keir, is there a particular reason you chose to use slightly different special mode numbers than Linux, ignoring VIDEO_CURRENT_MODE altogether? I think it wouldn''t be bad to be in sync with Linux here, and I independently think that having a way to avoid mode switching altogether is good to have in case of possible problems on exotic hardware.

Hi all, these are the remaining unapplied patches of the ARM HDLCD patch series. Changes in v7: - rebased on b61ed421d2c85b5b106c63f2c14f8aa162b282f0; - turn more printk and panic into early_printk and early_panic. Changes in v6: - rebased on 77d3a1db3196b1b5864469f8d3f41d496800c795; - remove useless initializations to NULL in lfb_init; - more compact checks in lfb_init. Changes in v5: - move

This series consists of improvements to Xen''s ability to print traces of its own stack, and specifically for the stack overflow case to be able to use frame pointers in a debug build. I have dev tested the series in debug and non-debug cases, with and without memory guards, and I believe that all the stack traces look correct (given the available information Xen has), and that the

Hi, V6: The only change from V5 is in patch #6: - changed comment to reflect autoxlate - removed a redundant ASSERT - reworked logic a bit so that get_page_from_gfn() is called with NULL for p2m type as before. arm has ASSERT wanting it to be NULL. Tim: patch 4 needs your approval. Daniel: patch 5 needs your approval. These patches implement PVH dom0. Patches 1 and 2
