I'm sure they aren't all appropriate, but perhaps some are. I didn't check out the layer in any detail or form an opinion on what does or doesn't make sense. Heck, maybe none of them are appropriate or general enough for meta-virt. > > >Having a layer like that, with fixes missing from meta-virt, makes no sense. > > > >Bruce > > meta-virtualization seems to be using Xen 4.12 at the moment. > > Corey's meta-raspberrypi-xen layer uses Xen 4.13.

If someone is going to the trouble of uprev'ing Xen in other layers rather than meta-virt, we are happy to take the uprev's in the main layer.
