Hi all, These patches support domU destroy and Page reference counter. We reversed the cset:8790 patch, and tested these. As a result, there was no problem. Please review these patches, and give us comment. # We don't test VT-i domain. [1/2] : domU destroy [2/2] : Page reference counter

[Xen-ia64-devel] SEDF scheduler

hi, I have just tried the SEDF scheduler. It doesn't seem as broken as several monthes ago. Did anyone tried SEDF recently ? Tristan. ___ Xen-ia64-devel mailing list Xen-ia64-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-ia64-devel

Hi, Kevin Thank you for your advice. I tried to compile define ARCH_HAS_DEV_MEM. but nothing changed. Best Regards, Akio Takebe Hi, Akio, Currently linux-2.6-xen-sparse/driver/xen/char/ is not included in compilation for xen/ia64, so you're still using linux-style kmem path.

I have a couple of concerns with this patch: 1) Because of vcpu_quick_region_check() this patch will matter (on Linux) only for code/data in region 7 that is not pinned by a guest TR. Vcpu_quick_region_check() avoids checking the guest TRs if accessing a region that has no TRs set

[Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH] [RFC] Remove mmzone.h and warning: MAX_ORDER redefined

2006-03-02 Thread Masaki Kanno
Hi, This patch removed xen/include/asm-ia64/linux/mmzohe.h which is not used now, and removed warning MAX_ORDER redefined from xen/common/page_alloc.c. However, mmzohe.h may be necessary when we support virtual memmap. I hope that we create new header files specific to xen/ia64 if necessary

Good work, Kan. It's cleaner to remove unused files though it's possibly used in the future. As you said, we can pull it back if necessary, and it's very likely original files will be modified more or less to accommodate XEN specific requirement even copying that time. Thanks, Kevin
