[Xen-devel] Any estimation to when the multifunction pass-through patches will be committed to xen-unstable tree?
Hi, Is there any estimation to when will the multi-function PT patches of Simon Horman be committed to xen unstable tree? Tom _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

The qemu patches need to be accepted by Ian Jackson first, into the qemu tree. Then I can consider taking the partnering xen-unstable patches and update xen-unstable''s QEMU_TAG. There''s probably no rerason not to get the patches checked in over the next few days. -- Keir On 22/06/2009 17:38, "Tom Rotenberg" <tom.rotenberg@gmail.com> wrote:> Hi, > > Is there any estimation to when will the multi-function PT patches of Simon > Horman be committed to xen unstable tree? > > Tom >_______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

That is, Request for Comments. So we haven''t applied them. Also, there weren''t any comments on the last round (about a week ago). Simon (and everyone else): will there be (or should there be) a revised final version ? Or does silence mean assent and everyone is happy to see them applied as-is ? Most of the changes are to xend which we''re quite lax about so there''s no reason from our end for us to wait I think.

Good for me. Not so good for the code. I''m not entirely sure how to proceed with the patches, as although they were marked as rfc, there hasn''t really been any discussion (that I have seen anyway). What I propose doing is up-porting the changes to the latest xen-unstable.hg - I assume there have been some changes since I posted a few weeks ago - and reposting with a view to having the patches merged by Ian and Keir. I think that the changes are up to a standard where they can be included in unstable - especially as no one has voiced any objections to them. On a related note. I have prepared a back-port of the various pass-through changes that are present in the unstable tree to the 3.4-testing tree. On top of this I have back-ported the multi-function changes. I hope to have this finished very soon and will send an email to xen-devel once it is ready. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Particularly where it affects the interface to qemu. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

But several people have expressed interest, so it seemed to be worth making the back-port anyway :-) _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

Do you have facilities for publishing your backport as a hg tree ? Alternatively I can set you up with space on xenbits.

The hg bit is on my server and the git bit is on github - only because it was easier that way. Depending on how useful it is I''m happy to consider maintaining it and moving it over to xenbits. _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
