Hello, The following set of patches came about when trying to fix the 32K limitation with stub_xc_readconsolering() in the ocaml bindings.
Patch 1 is a hypervisor patch adding a new SYSCTL hypercall to query the size of the console ring, which is fixed but otherwise inaccessible after boot. Patches 2 thru 5 are tools patches: * Patch 2 adds a libxc function to use the new SYSCTL hypercall. * Patch 3 implements an alternative xc_readconsolering() to prevent bounce buffering. * Patch 4 uses the preceding patches to fix the implementation of stub_xc_readconsolering() in the ocaml bindings. * Patch 5 is a misc threading fix in the ocaml bindings, discovered when trying to fix the console functionality. There are minimal changes in v3. The changes are mostly style tweaks, extra comments and rebasing on top of unstable. CC'd is xen-api@lists.xen.org as well, for comment on the ocaml patches. This patch set has been compile-tested on unstable, and functionally tested via backport to 4.2 (which was only one whitespace fuzz issue and no code change).
