[Xen-devel] [PATCH] kernel /proc information modified for xen mem-set

["Satoshi Uchida" <s-uchida@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I interested that memory capacity can be changed.
But, although xen balloon information(/proc/xen/balloon) is modified for
xen mem-set command, 
memory information in domain is not modified.

In actually, MemFree is computed each time, but TotalMem is setup at
boot time.
So, in top command and etc.,  memory used decrease, but memory free
increased.
However, this is not correct, and If anyone see this information, he/she
maybe perplexed.

This patch is reflect TotalMem information.
But, I think that like this solution is not excellent.

Thank you.
