Alex,

I am using 9268.
But I think all versions are using privified instructions,
because this code is in sparse tree.

Pls refer to inux-2.6-xen-sparse/include/asm-ia64/xen/privop.h
extern unsigned long xen_fc(unsigned long addr);
#define ia64_fc(addr)           xen_fc((unsigned long)(addr))
extern unsigned long xen_thash(unsigned long addr);
#define ia64_thash(addr)        xen_thash((unsigned long)(addr))

Thanks,
-Anthony
