[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xc_XXX_build - add parallel routines to support input via buffer rather than files

[B Thomas <bjthomas3@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a need to pass image and ramdisk via buffers, and not
files.  I added some parallel routines so as not to disturb the
existing APIs. This may, or may not, have been the correct choice, but
it works.  In this patch, you'll find xc_linux_build_mem and
xc_vmx_build_mem as the new interfaces, which accept buffer
pointer/size arguments rather than filename arguments. The old
interfaces remain (both in code and working status). Some internal
shuffling was needed to accomodate this, which I've tried to minimize.
I've tested most of this, the expection being IA64, which I don't have.
