Hi Akio,

Is this merge based on linux-2.6.18-rc2?
When I diff linux-2.6-xen-fedora with linux-2.6.18-rc2,
There are some modifications which are not marked by #ifdef CONFIG_XEN

Let's not push this into linux-2.6-xen-fedora.

We've been working with a patch in BZ 199684 which includes many of these changes. That patch, hopefully, will be submitted today at some point.

Status is even after applying the patch the Xen kernels do not boot. The non-Xen kernels do boot.

Hi

	There are several changes not marked as CONFIG_XEN:

* tsc timer -> fixed since them with other solution
* TPM -> don't ask me, tpm code is evil.  And to make things more
interesting xen code & linux upstream code has diverged so much that it
is not funny.
* things marked CONFIG_X86_NO_TSS & CONFIG_X86_NO_IDT (already on
unstable tree)
* anything that touchs a Task segment is disabled by default (already on
unstable tree)
* HAVE_SHARED_KERNEL_PMD changes, already on unstable tree
* some patches to oprofile to make xenoprof work.
* __FIXADDR_TOP already on xen unstable, and more things with vDSO
integration.

I haven't really examined neither i64 or powerpec bits.

If you have any concern about any particular piece of code, please, let
me know.

Later, Juan.
