  • 4bac07c99   xen: add the Xenbus sysfs and virtual device hotplug driver ... Browse Code »

    This communicates with the machine control software via a registry
    residing in a controlling virtual machine. This allows dynamic
    creation, destruction and modification of virtual device
    configurations (network devices, block devices and CPUS, to name some
    examples).

    [ Greg, would you mind giving this a review? Thanks -J ]

  • ad9a86121   xen: Add grant table support ... Browse Code »

    Add Xen 'grant table' driver which allows granting of access to
    selected local memory pages by other virtual machines and,
    symmetrically, the mapping of remote memory pages which other virtual
    machines have granted access to.

    This driver is a prerequisite for many of the Xen virtual device
    drivers, which grant the 'device driver domain' restricted and
    temporary access to only those memory pages that are currently
    involved in I/O operations.
