Re: Re: PATCH 2/2: Reporting of ACPI/APIC features for HVM Xen

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Updated patch, incorporating feedback.

Besides formatting, changes how apic is reported - and that's not
pretty. As danpb found out, in cset 12423:ebed72718263 in xen-unstable,
setting the apic was removed from tools/libxc/xc_hvm_build.c. 

In a surprising turn of events, cset 12569:9d6bc06919e0 claims to
reintroduce apic toggling (with a default of 1/on) by writing it into an
hvm_info_table in tools/python/xen/lowlevel/xc/xc.c - I haven't figured
out why the apic can't be toggled in rawhide, though.

For now, the code uses the hypervisor version to determine what apic
capability to report - most likely not the right thing to do, better
suggestions much appreciated.
