I don't see 32 bit OSes as an important use case. Maybe there is more behind it that I cannot see.The primary reason was named before: 32-bit support will likely end up changing the way 64-bit guests get launched.I can work on the new boot ABI, even if it's just a design document now, but the actual implementation needs to be done on top of the 32-bit support series. Boris, do you think you could send an early RFC of your 32-bit support series in a couple of weeks at most?Besides these, we still don't have any timelines for AMD support, and nobody stepping up to fix any remaining /* TODO pvh fixme */ in the code afterwards. Most of "fixme"s should be taken care of as part of 32-bit and AMD support.I will look at whatever is left (some of them IIRC are related to migration and it sounds like those don't *have* to be fixed right away). -boris _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
