Therefore, my suggestion of moving it outside of the xen/ tree and having both minios and Xen VPATH themselves access to it helps with the end goal of preventing minios becoming dependent on Xen code. It further prevents both Xen and minios from accidentally gaining localisation hacks in the library itself, which makes it easier to updates to the base libdft if/when necessary. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
