Sorry... 99% of the changes I've committed have been maintenance, namely getting Xen/ia64 to compile with CONFIG_SMP (which can't even be turned off on Xen/x86) and catching the code up to the latest linux release. I wasn't intending to add new functionality or impact the multi-domain effort. I did get curious to see how far the SMP boot was getting and added some printk's and missing code (that was already in Xen/x86) but gave up on that rather quickly due to needing to do other maintenance activities (2.6.13). Rather than throw away useful debugging code, I checked it in. Last, I've been cleaning up some linux files that were changed (without ifdef's) and doing some minor restructuring following Arun's removal of the mkbuildtree patch process. I still have some more 2.6.13 work, but it should be done tomorrow. If any of this maintenance interfered with the multi-domain repair, I apologize. But it seemed like it was orthogonal so a good time to do it. (And if anyone else wants to volunteer to do my boring maintenance tasks, please let me know :-) Dan > -----Original Message----- > From: Tian, Kevin [mailto:kevin.tian@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 6:31 PM > To: Magenheimer, Dan (HP Labs Fort Collins) > Cc: xen-ia64-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: How is the basic tree coming? > > Hi, Dan, > Per your previous mail, you said: > >>>> I would like to solicit (or maybe beg!) for your help > >>>> in bug-hunting and bug-fixing to bring xen-ia64 back > >>>> to the previous functionality (e.g. multiple domains > >>>> working with grant tables, console and blk drivers). > >>>> Some of you may have participated in implementation > >>>> and debugging of the equivalent driver code on the x86 side > >>>> and your help especially would be greatly appreciated. > >>>> I see this as a community effort... > ################################ > >>>>I do not expect to > >>>> accept new functionality patches until this is all > >>>> working again. > ############################### > >>>> > >>>> Thanks, > >>>> Dan > > While xen-ia64-unstable > > 15 hours ago: Baby step toward host SMP support > changeset 6453: 44316ce83277 > parent 6452: f5c4042212b0 > tag: tip > author: djm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > date: Tue Aug 30 23:51:51 2005 > files: xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/mm_contig.c > xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/smp.c > xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/smpboot.c xen/arch/ia64/vcpu.c > xen/arch/ia64/xenmisc.c xen/arch/ia64/xensetup.c > 20 hours ago: Enable CONFIG_SMP compile and link > changeset 6452: f5c4042212b0 > parent 6451: 2b95125015a5 > author: djm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > date: Tue Aug 30 18:41:54 2005 > files: xen/arch/ia64/hyperprivop.S xen/arch/ia64/irq.c > xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/irq_ia64.c xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/mm_contig.c > xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/sal.c xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/smp.c > xen/arch/ia64/linux-xen/smpboot.c xen/arch/ia64/process.c > xen/arch/ia64/xensetup.c xen/arch/ia64/xentime.c ... > > Self-contradictory?
