Xen devel - Sep 2007 - Xen 3.1.1 -- Final call for patches

I''d like to make a very final release candidate on Tuesday. If there
are any
more patches that anyone would like applied to the tree, please post them by
the end of tomorrow, clearly marked to be considered for 3.1.1. Check
http://xenbits.xensource.com/staging/xen-3.1-testing.hg for the up-to-date
list of what is currently in 3.1.1, and don''t assume that
previously-posted
patches will make it without a re-send!

The attached patch fixes CVE-2007-4573 which allows local users to 
gain root privileges under the x86_64 architecture.
It is adapted from the patch posted at kernel.org.

Regards,
Ralf

Keir,
     I know you said you wanted to get the 3.1.1 release out today, but I
haven''t seen it yet, so I''ll try my luck.  If possible, I
would like to see the
following changesets pulled into 3.1-testing:

xen-unstable 15594, 15342, 15756, 15628, 15629

They all apply (with a little fuzz) as exported from xen-unstable.

Thanks,
Chris Lalancette
