[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH] docs: fix INTRODUCE description in xenstore.txt
The description of the Xenstore INTRODUCE command is still referencing xend. Fix that. While at it, make clear that the Xenstore implementation is allowed to ignore the specified gfn and use the Xenstore reserved grant id GNTTAB_RESERVED_XENSTORE instead.
