This is really platform initialization, for HVMlite it's invoked as x86_init.oem.arch_setup(). Things like xen_setup_features(), xen_init_apic() etc. I suppose I can move it to xen_hvm_guest_init() but then we will have some amount of code duplication. There is also a chunk of code there (in xen_init_kernel()) that will probably be used for HVMlite dom0. Sharing any code with the existing PVH code isn't useful, since PVH support will be removed. There is nothing PVH-specific, I said "(H)" mostly because that code is the same is PV. -boris _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xen.org/xen-devel
