[Xen-ia64-devel] [Patch] fix PAL_HALT of dom0 for panic_notifier_list

Hi Isaku, Should we make the same changes to the common xencomm files? (xen-ppc-devel CC'd) I don't see why we wouldn't, at least for this first one. How much memory have you been able to assign to a domain with theses patches? My only nit on this patch is that the from/to_ulong variables
