The patch titled
lguest: use standard bootloader format, fix badly-sized initrds
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
lguest-the-host-code-lguest-use-standard-bootloader-format-fix-badly-sized.patch
This patch was dropped because it was folded into lguest-the-host-code.patch
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: lguest: use standard bootloader format, fix badly-sized initrds
From: Rusty Russell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Eric Biederman complained that lguest doesn't use the Linux standard boot
header format. He's got a good point.
This also simplifies the code: the example launcher writes the header
directly, rather than lguest writing into it during boot.
While we're touching this code, we also fix the problem of initrd's which
don't have a page-aligned size.
This anticipates changing the paravirt-finding routines to use a "platform
type" field from %esi, rather than a "probe all until one succeeds"
routine, but doesn't actually change that code.
